Cerebral Organoids Respond to Sub-Terahertz and Terahertz Radiation

Beyond their potential for broadband wireless communications, sub-terahertz and terahertz signals have recently been shown to interact with certain proteins in the human body. Some of these proteins, involved in ion channel function and neurotransmission, play a key role in regulating neuronal activity by modulating the generation of action potentials. This paper presents and analyzes the measured responses of cerebral organoids exposed to sub-terahertz and terahertz radiation. The results suggest that such radiation can alter neuronal activity, suggesting potential implications for neuroscience and biomedical applications.
