Researchers have developed a theoretical framework that shows how living cell membranes can generate electricity from molecular fluctuations. The work is published in the journal PNAS Nexus. Subscribe ...

Addressing global water scarcity, Active Membranes' electro-active systems enhance desalination, offering significant cost savings and environmental benefits.

Cells have always hummed with activity. They make their own energy, package it into molecules like ATP, and spend it relentlessly to stay alive. Proteins twist, ions rush, and membranes flex as life ...
