Bioelectric code gains new recognition as body organizer and form of intelligence

Here’s a new book on the topic (Hachette 2023):

At Evolution News:

I’ve written about the “electric cell” here and here, describing how electric currents in cell membranes transmit information through an “electric code.” I’ve also written about “water wires” and cable bacteria. Biologists have long known about the membrane potential of an individual cell, which measures about -70 millivolts, due to ionic separations. They have known that neurons transmit ionic voltages down their membranes. Now, recent discoveries are showing that we must expand our exploration of bioelectricity to the whole body. – David Coppedge (March 15, 2023)

Bioelectricity vs DNA – what they do:

“We would call this intelligence.”
