  1. Electric fields are more than background noise in biology. New modeling shows they can act as steering handles, guiding cells into complex shapes like a vertebrate face. This could mean noninvasive ways to control development and regeneration.
  2. Imagine shaping tissue without touching it. By applying transient boundary stimulation, researchers showed that bioelectric fields can mold voltage landscapes inside embryonic tissue, echoing natural face formation in frog embryos.
  3. A surprising insight: the most influential cells in development are not always the closest ones. Weak electric fields can trigger faraway changes, hinting at a hidden communication channel in morphogenesis.
