BIOELECTRONICS: At the heart of life chemistry is the electrical event of an electron transfer in redox reactions between molecules, which is poorly understood. This process drives Dylan Thomas’s Green Fuse in plants and animals to convert food or sunlight into energy , and in neural computing. It’s all electrical. Electron transfer reactions tend to be superfast (subpicosecond) compared to other biological reactions (microseconds to seconds). It is this stuff that conveys brain thoughts, this electrical buzz, and how one rat can send thoughts to another via the internet.
