Comment on “Penetration of Action Potentials During Collision in the Median and Lateral Giant Axons of Invertebrates”
The action potential (AP) is an electrical impulse elicited by depolarization of the neuronal membrane from the resting membrane potential (around -70 mV). It propagates along the axon, allowing for rapid and distant communication. Recently, it was claimed that two APs traveling in opposite directi...
