Scientists in Melbourne have discovered how tiny electrical pulses can steer stem cells as they grow, opening the door to new ...

When two cells "talk" to each other, they often do so through tiny channels called electrical synapses. Unlike chemical ...

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 ...

A team of U.S. engineers has found that it's possible to build artificial cells replicating the electrical behavior of electric eel cells. In fact, these artificial cells deliver better performance ...

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 ...
