One of the possible solutions is to use
molecules as circuits, but their poor conduction capabilities make them unlikely candidates.

Those who think on Marxist lines believe that all that is necessary to inspire and polarize the human
molecules is that they should look forward to an eventual state of collective reflection and sympathy, at the culmination of anthropogenesis, from which all will benefit through participation:
as it were, a vault of intermingled thoughts, a closed
circuit of attachments in which the individual will achieve intellectual and affective wholeness to the extent that he is one with the whole system.
A first step in this field is for researchers to demonstrate that single
molecules can function
as reproducible
circuit elements such
as transistors or diodes that can easily operate at room temperature.
Such images could give a deeper understanding of chemical reactions, and may help researchers size up
molecules for use
as electrical components in tiny
circuits.
It may also help researchers size up
molecules for use
as electrical components in tiny
circuits.
«We can consider the possibility of using the
molecule and the
circuit as a drug development target in the future,» Tonegawa says, «for reducing the aging - dependent and the pathological decline in episodic memory.»
Just
as silicon - based components use electric current to represent 1's and 0's, bio-based
circuits use concentrations of DNA
molecules in a test tube.
Most of his work focuses on the pharmacologic manipulation of mammalian brain
circuits which use the most abundant inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system gamma - aminobutyric acid (GABA)
as their chief signaling
molecule.
The application of lasers to things like spectroscopy means that we can use light to do such things
as detecting
molecules, making printed
circuits, communicating information, and perhaps even computing.
Journal coverage includes basic signaling interests (e.g. neurotransmitters, ions and ion channels, receptors and messenger
molecules, and kinases / phosphatases),
as well
as electrical signaling, signaling in neural
circuits, neuroimaging, signaling aspects of pathologies, synaptic transmission and plasticity, and therapeutic intervention.
As a postdoctoral fellow in Dr. Cori Bargmann's lab at the Rockefeller University, she showed that the nematode C. elegans produces a neuropeptide that is an evolutionary precursor of the mammalian peptides vasopressin and oxytocin, and mapped a neural
circuit by which this
molecule, nematocin, modulates mating behavior.
Unlike more traditional therapeutic modalities such
as small
molecules or antibodies, Neurona is focused on unique compositions of cells that can be precisely targeted, integrated into damaged neural
circuits, and provide activity - dependent regulation.
[1] Inflammatory
molecules interact with neuro -
circuits in the brain, which can lead to behavioural responses such
as avoidance and alarm.
