Biologists have long treated the cell as a chemical factory, but a new wave of research is forcing a rethink of that familiar ...

Inside every living cell, proteins and membranes are in constant motion, reshaping, colliding, and flexing as they keep an ...

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

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.

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 ...
