Virtual Classroom: How Electricity Helps Your Body Function

Many parts of the human body need electricity to function – your heart uses it to beat, your muscles use it to contract, and your brain uses it to “fire” off communication signals. Dr. Cecile Terrenoire, NYSCF’s Senior Director of Process Development, teaches students all about electrophysiology: the study of how electricity is used by the cells in your body.

Watch this 45-minute webinar featuring a presentation from Dr. Terrenoire followed by Q&A from students across the country!
