Electrical Fields in Biology
Nick explores the uncharted territory of electrical fields in biological development, suggesting they may hold the key to understanding consciousness and cognition. He emphasizes the need for a deeper understanding of mitochondrial structures and their potential roles in brain function. While organoids show promise, he believes that without mastering the control of electrical fields, we won't unlock their full potential as functional systems.In this clip
