UMass Amherst researchers demonstrate protein-nanowire memristors for neuromorphic computing

In June 2021, researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst published findings in Nature Communications showing that protein nanowires harvested from the bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens can function as memristors, enabling brain-inspired computation at ultralow power without a conventional battery.
