Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical ...

New evidence of electrical power generation on cell membranes could offer insights into how living cells interact with their ...

The constant, energy-driven motion inside living cells may generate electricity in a way no one fully recognized before.

Many biological processes are regulated by electricity—from nerve impulses to heartbeats to the movement of molecules in and out of cells. A study by Scripps Research scientists reveals a previously ...

Dissociating tissues into single cells is a core laboratory technique and vital for widely used applications such as next-generation sequencing or flow cytometry. Scientists who employ tissue ...

Researchers from the Francis Crick Institute have found that some particularly aggressive lung cancer cells can develop their own electric network, like that seen in the body's nervous system. This ...
