Synchronous cortical population activity in the gamma frequency band (30–70 Hz) is seen in the electroencephalograms (EEGs) of humans and other mammals 1, and emerges from the concerted activity of ...

Immature neurons in many brain regions are electrically coupled through gap junctions, which are lost as chemical synaptic transmission matures. This developmental uncoupling is now shown to require ...

The heartbeat is controlled by rapid conduction of an electrical current between heart muscle cells. Central to passage of the electrical current are structures known as gap junctions, low resistance ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Traditional bioelectronics, primarily comprised of nonliving synthetic materials, lack cellular behaviors such as adaptability and motility.

These days having both a land line and a mobile phone seems like overkill. But Virginia Tech researchers have shown that the heart relies on at least two key communication channels to keep abnormal ...
