Electricity has always been central to how life works, from the firing of neurons to the beating of the heart, but new ...

Living cells may generate electricity through the natural motion of their membranes. These fast electrical signals could play ...

Human bodies are usually described as chemical engines, powered by glucose and oxygen. Yet a wave of new research suggests ...

Studies have shown that cells respond to electric fields; electrotaxis is when cells are moving under the influence of an electric field. Electrotaxis is thought to be involved in several important ...

Electric field-mediated cell migration is a fundamental biophysical process whereby cells respond to electrical cues and migrate directionally, a phenomenon often termed galvanotaxis or electrotaxis.

Shifts in electrical activity are known to take place in various cells in the human body, such as those in the heart that facilitate blood flow and the neurons that coordinate the many functions of ...
