Overview

Electrophysiology is a branch of biology that studies the electrical properties of living cells, tissues, and organisms. It is used to measure the electrical activity of cells and tissues, as well as to identify and study the mechanisms that underlie physiological processes such as neuronal communication, muscle contraction, heart contraction, and cell metabolism. Electrophysiological studies can be used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, to identify and treat pathological conditions, and to assess the safety of drugs and other treatments. Electrophysiology is an important tool in the study of both normal and abnormal physiology, and is vital for understanding the functioning of human organs and tissues.
