1/4 the #sciencepoem goes like this:
Wouldn't the electromagnetic field be cool
if it could be used for
control of molecules and diseases cure?
Well, what molecules should we target?
Cellular fibers - microtubules are in our project
Michal @mcer33 presented our results on #pulsed #electric field on #cytoskeleton at #BioEl2022 @jkulinz and had great and long discussions! #Austria #bioelectronics
A new paper in Nature shows the cell body sends a slow, rhythmic pulse that picks one neurite to become the axon. The pulse relaxes internal tension, letting that branch grow longer while others stay short.
#neuronalPolarity
A new paper in Nature shows a glowing red worm can have its brightness changed by static and radio‑frequency magnetic fields tuned to electron spin resonance. This hints at quantum‑linked reactions in cells.

"Touch" is the feeling of that electromagnetic repulsion.
Every handshake, every embrace, is a meeting of forces separated by one ten-billionth of a meter.

In case you missed it yesterday, our talk from Dr. Michal Cifra (@mcer33) is now available to watch.
Michal presented his work on how external electric fields can affect protein structure, dynamics, interactions, and function, followed by a community Q&A.

Tue afternoon, 2:45: "Hybrid Microwave-PEF platform for sensing PEF-induced electrochemical effects", led by Petr Kůrka. One gold electrode pair that makes the bubbles and watches them, in real time. @isebtt #WCE2026

Closing session S07 at 11:45 on Tue: "PEF sequence architecture determines the electrochemical effects on tubulin", led by Tomáš Zakar. Change the pulse sequence and the protein response follows. @isebtt #WCE2026
#Electroporation #PulsedElectricFields
First of three talks at the 6th World Congress on Electroporation: "Direct and indirect effects of electric fields on protein systems" opens session S07 on Tue 29 Sep, 10:30, Coquina Salons GH. @isebtt #WCE2026

I'm thrilled that Ondřej is presenting our findings on electric and electrochemical effects on tubulin at #cytoskeletonclub2026 – stay tuned for the full paper soon!

A 2026 paper in PNAS: AI tools like AlphaFold bury electrically charged building blocks inside a protein's oily core, a place real proteins never put them. Simple physics checks push the charges back out.

The effects of external electric fields on proteins.
Great review by Michal Cifra et al. @mcer33

"EFs couple directly to charged & dipolar groups, biasing rigid-body motion, reshaping intra- and inter-molecular electrostatics ..."
Honored to be elected vice-chair of URSI Commission K (electromagnetics in biology & medicine), with Ivana Kolmasova as vice-chair of Commission H. Czechia is strong in radio science! #ursigass2026

Přemek delivered a great talk today on our sub-THz on-chip power delivery device, which sparked a lot of interest in the audience. Congratulations on his first presentation at an international conference! #ursigass2026

Today at #ursigass2026 I presented our research on pulsed electric fields, ROS, and chemiluminescence. Grateful for the great feedback! Also showcased our Biophotoniq initiative.
#BioElectroMagnetics #PulsedElectricFields
I enjoyed presenting our computational results on the sub-THz vibration modes of hydrated proteins (tubulin and kinesin) and their contribution to the dielectric response. #URSIGASS2026

Fantastic job Michal Cifra @mcer33!
Could 'biophotons' represent a new signalling mechanism in cells? Or be used to diagnose disease?

Playing with proteins' activity with electric fields opens up a whole new playground. This comprehensive work from @mcer33 and @ErikMarklund brings together all we know about it!

It's been a great start to the conference so far. I'm glad to be attending with my very talented student Přemysl Klajs — we're learning a lot about radio science across many different fields. #ursigass2026

Radical pairs in cryptochrome and iLOV can be steered by radio waves, but only at the right RF/static-field combo. This turns flavoproteins into optically addressable spin sensors.

At Colours of Ostrava right now? Head to the Curiosity Stage by the Czech Academy of Sciences — I’ll be there talking biophysics and bioelectromagnetics with anyone curious enough to ask.
