There's been a lot of talk about the most eco-friendly ways to generate electric power. Everything from using human waste to getting bacteria to do the job for us has been discussed. But researchers ...

Electric fish exhibit a unique evolutionary adaptation that enables them to generate and perceive electric fields, providing a compelling model for exploring sensory ecology, neurobiology, and ...

It would be a game-changer if all members of a basketball team could see out of each other's eyes in addition to their own. Biologists have found evidence that this kind of collective sensing occurs ...

Neuroscientist Nathan Sawtell has spent a lot of time studying the electric elephantnose fish. These fish send and decipher weak electric signals,... The "shocking" tactic electric fish use to ...

Electric fish exhibit a highly specialised sensory modality that utilises self‐generated electric fields to navigate, forage and communicate in turbid aquatic environments. Their electrosensory ...
