Memristors can remember the state of the current they have experienced and are key components in building brain-like computing systems. This result, published in the latest issue of PLOS ONE, suggests that fungal networks may become a green alternative for future computing technologies, potentially used for processing and storing digital information, replacing current microelectronic devices that rely on metals and semiconductors A research team from Ohio State University has transformed common edible fungi, such as shiitake and mushrooms, into a basic electronic component known as a memristor.
