The Electrome: The Next Great Frontier For Biomedical Technology

Cars That Think

It’s basically the reason they say you’re 66 percent water or whatever. This is like sieve water. It’s got sodium, potassium, calcium, etc., It doesn’t really like sodium so much. In fact, there was a paper released in 2018 that I didn’t include, which I’m really annoyed by. and these ions are charged particles.
