First Ever Images of the Cell-Wide Web Reveal the Circuit that Directs Signals inside Cells (2 of 2) (IMAGE)
Caption
The first ever images of the cell-wide web have been captured by scientists at the University of Edinburgh thanks to computing techniques similar to those used for the first picture of a black hole. The findings reveal cells in the body are wired like computer chips to direct signals that instruct how they function. Unlike a fixed circuit board, however, cells can rapidly rewire their communication networks to change their behavior.
