Electrical Activity of Fungi: Spikes Detection and Complexity Analysis

This research explores how mushrooms generate and use electrical signals, similar to how our nervous system works. Scientists developed new ways to measure and understand these electrical patterns in oyster mushrooms, which could help us better understand how fungi communicate and make decisions. Impact on everyday life: • Provides new insights into how fungi communicate and process information • Could lead to better understanding of natural biological networks • May inspire new approaches to computing and information processing • Could help improve mushroom cultivation techniques • Might lead to new ways of monitoring ecosystem health through fungal networks
