Call them the neuron whisperers. Researchers are eavesdropping on conversations going on between brain cells in a dish.
Rather than hearing the chatter, they watch neurons that have been genetically modified so that the electrical impulses moving along their branched tendrils cause sparkles of red light (see video).
