Navigating the world is no mean feat, especially when the world pushes back. For instance, airflow hitting a fly on its right ...

Researchers at the University of Warwick have found bacteria can be detected in minutes by zapping them with electricity. Scientists at the university in the United Kingdom discovered healthy bacteria ...

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

Electrical signalling plays a pivotal role in how plants perceive and respond to their environment. Rapid electrical impulses, including action potentials (APs) and slower variation potentials (VPs), ...

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.

An international research team led by Prof. Dr. Sedat Nizamoğlu from the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering ...

A new study has furthered our understanding of plant evolution by tracking the origins of electrical signaling components that plants developed to communicate and adapt to life on land. A study led by ...

The distinction between analog and digital signals is very simple, but it can still be a challenge to wrap one's mind around the concepts that define the two systems. Just when you think you've got it ...
