Research FocusResponses of biological systems to electric fields, especially very short (nanosecond), but very high intensity (MV/m) pulsed fields, using conventional delivery through macro scale electrodes and also a direct interface between integrated circuit electronics and biological tissue. Investigations range from molecular dynamics simulations of phospholipid bilayers in electric fields to observations of living cells during pulse exposure to evaluations of nanoelectropulse therapy for clinical applications.
