Abstract:Fungal electronics is a family of living electronic devices made of mycelium bound composites or pure mycelium. Fungal electronic devices are capable of changing their impedance and generating spikes of electrical potential in response to external control parameters. Fungal electronics can be embedded into fungal materials and wearables or used as stand alone sensing and computing devices.

Thaiss added, “Basically, we’ve identified a three-step pathway toward cognitive decline that starts with gastrointestinal aging and the subsequent microbial and metabolic changes that occur. The myeloid cells in the GI tract sense these changes, and their inflammatory response impairs the connection between the gut and the brain via the vagus nerve. This is a direct driver of memory decline. And if we restore the activity of the vagus nerve, we can restore an old animal’s memory function to that of a young animal.”
