26 October 2020
- 01:3501:35, 26 October 2020 diff hist −796 Graphene →Biological: Reorganize things some so that the various biological elements make sense, they were getting mixed up. Promoted the paragraph indicating that results are mixed to the head of the section. Gutted the neural bit; after reviewing 5 year old studies, and searching for more recent results, the section on the "promise" of graphene as as useful material in neural electrodes was clearly overblown. If someone can come up with a in-vivo study, feel free to better update the neural bit.
