In the summer of 1986, futuristic magnetic trains and life-size robots drew a teenaged Michael Levin to the Vancouver World’s Expo. But what changed his life was an obscure used book he found on the ...

Senescence is a process in which a cell ages and stops dividing but does not die. In keratinocytes, or skin cells, senescence is marked by depolarization of membrane potential (Vmem), the electrical ...

The growth of the global bioelectric medicine market is propelled by various drivers including the increasing population of the geriatric group, rising burden of diseases necessitating the use of ...

When Tufts University developmental biologist Michael Levin proposed tweaking cells’ electrical signals to create new patterns of growth, he encountered some resistance. "People thought it was nuts," ...

The bioelectric medicine market is growing at a CAGR of approximately 6-8% during the forecast period. The primary factors driving this growth include the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, ...

AIM AND SCOPE: The aim of the course is the understanding of bioelectric systems and phenomena through systems simulation, use of high performance computational platforms to understand the underlying ...

For the first time, scientists have altered natural bioelectrical communication among cells to directly specify the type of new organ to be created at a particular location within a vertebrate ...

In addition to its visual camouflage, the Common cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) has a stealth technology to protect itself from predators that might detect it in the electrical spectrum. The ...

MEDFORD/SOMERVILLE, Mass. (February 1, 2013) Biologists at Tufts University School of Arts and Sciences have discovered a bioelectric signal that can identify cells that are likely to develop into ...
