Paper link: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;doi.org&#x2F;10.1016&#x2F;j.pneurobio.2023.102465" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;doi.org&#x2F;10.1016&#x2F;j.pneurobio.2023.102465</a><p>&gt; <i>The brain infrastructure that connects neurons is collectively referred to as the cytoskeleton. It includes proteins, neurotransmitters, filaments, microtubules etc. Above, we saw how electric fields generated by neurons and other parts of the cytoskeleton carry information being used for behavior. Here, we propose the Cytoelectric Coupling Hypothesis: Electric fields help organize components of the cytoskeleton in order to &quot;tune&quot; it to process information efficiently.</i><p>Stunning complexity.
