Abstract
The field of bioelectricity is growing so rapidly, any attempt on my part to summarize its extraordinary breadth and depth would be a shallow report, a list really. Instead, I've zoomed in to introduce two marvelous examples of new understanding and application of bioelectricity. The signaling Venus flytraps use to capture and digest insects is a marvel of electrical engineering. The application of magnetic fields to treat conditions with brain involvement can offer relief from debilitating symptoms that have been refractory to other treatments. These, and a multitude of other fascinating stories, are helping to spread the word that bioelectricity can and should be seen as a critical approach that can change both science and medicine. This important journal will continue to carry that message.
