Professor Joel Schindall of MIT’s Laboratory for Electromagnetic and Electronic Systems discusses his work in developing a fast-charging, long-lived ultracapacitor that provides quick energy and holds as much energy as a battery of equal dimensions.

Intercellular nano tubes give rise to mirror neurons via electrochemical feedback and transduction. They proliferate aound sites previously identified as areas in the brain which have been identified with mirror neurons. Nanotubes are essentially waveguides and antennae responsible for mediating consciousness. Influenced by chemical physical and electrical environment they coopt cells in the brain to resonate typically at 40hz in accordance with the resonant frequency of their tensegrity structure. Providing hitherto unforseen mechanism of communication and feedback in different areas of the brain. They give neurons a means of ‘voting’ or coopting other cells without the synapses individually firing until a concensus is reached. Essentially they are able to imbibe some cells with ‘wisdom’ by storing the collective response of separate individual neurons to an external stimulus through a process of feedback. Think of them as inductors and the synapses as capacitors. They are ancient structures which predate synaptic signalling and were sufficient to give dinosaurs their long reign.
