New paper in PNAS
The first Asally lab paper is now published in PNAS! Congrats to the team!!
In this work, we 'zapped' bacterial cells with electricity and monitored membrane potential dynamics. We found proliferating cells and inhibitted cells respond in an apparent opposite directions to an identical electrical input.
Electrically induced bacterial membrane-potential dynamics correspond to cellular proliferation capacity
