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

Scientists at the Carney Institute for Brain Science have discovered specific patterns of electrical signals in the brain that may help forecast whether a person will go on to develop Alzheimer’s ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

Cerebral blood delivery depends on mechanisms such as electrical signaling, which propagates through capillary networks to upstream arterioles to deliver blood, and calcium signaling, which fine-tunes ...

Insurers are no longer treating electrical problems as background noise. As loss data and real time monitoring sharpen their ...

Tiny lab-grown “mini brains” are no longer just a futuristic curiosity. By capturing the electrical chatter of neurons in a ...

What happens inside the carnivorous plant Venus Flytrap when it catches an insect? New technology has led to discoveries about the electrical signalling that causes the trap to snap shut.

Researchers have grown pea-sized brains in the lab that are offering an unprecedented look at how neurons behave differently ...

Human beings and other animals send electrical signals via the central nervous system. The Venus flytrap, which lacks such a nervous system, also sends rapid electrical impulses, which are generated ...

A type of novel molecular voltage sensor makes it possible to watch nerve cells at work. The principle of the method has been known for some time. However, researchers at the University of Bonn and ...

Researchers have developed a new acoustic fabric converts audible sounds into electrical signals. They designed a fabric that works like a microphone, converting sound first into mechanical vibrations ...
