Studies have shown that cells respond to electric fields; electrotaxis is when cells are moving under the influence of an electric field. Electrotaxis is thought to be involved in several important ...

Glioblastomas are one of the most malignant and lethal cancers. Despite recent treatment advancements, median survival is only 12 to 16 months. In 2015, the Optune device, a novel, non-invasive ...

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 ...
