    For humans, our sense of touch is relayed to the brain via small electrical pulses. Now, CU Boulder scientists have found that individual bacteria, too, can feel their external environment in a similar way.In a new study, CU Boulder researchers have
  • Assistant Professor in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, Joel Kralj, a BioFrontiers Institute faculty member, became interested in measuring cellular voltage as a postdoctoral researcher.
    Innovator Award winner brings to light the electrical changes in cellsElectric voltage powers life: Our brains use electrical transients to process every thought and every heartbeat arises from voltage changes in heart cells.  Traditional
