An Integrated Circuit Made of Ions Could Bring Computing Into Your Cells

The human body isn't a metal machine, but it's still plenty complicated, and regulating it like a machine is tough to pull off.

That's why a new discovery by Klas Tybrandt, a doctoral student in Organic Electronics at Link�ping University, Sweden, is exciting: he's developed the first integrated chemical chip, similar to silicon-based electronics, but for biologic material.
