"Graphene camera" images the electric field of a beating heart

Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, (UC Berkeley) have demonstrated yet another use for the ever-versatile wonder material graphene, using it as the basis for an advanced sensor that can image electrical signals from living cells and tissue in real time. The team's "graphene camera" was used to record electrical activity of a beating heart in action, and could also open up new sensing capabilities when it comes to the brain.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, ScienceTags: Heart, Graphene, Brain, University of California Berkeley
