Cell-transistor interface clears biolectronics hurdle
June 28, 2007 | Source: EE Times
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute have developed a cell-transistor interface that they believe will usher in a new era of bioelectronics, allowing cells to be manipulated and studied without destroying them in the process.
In a demonstration, the chip was used to test the effect of new drugs on the living cells.
