Brain-inspired computing with fluidic iontronic nanochannels ( www.pnas.org )
Scientists have created an artificial synapse that works with water and salt, mimicking the medium used by our brains. This could lead to more efficient and energy-saving brain-inspired computers. The device, called an iontronic memristor, consists of a microchannel filled with water and salt, and can process complex information...

Good bit of science detective work (image manipulation, paper now retracted) ( www.pnas.org )
Reasonably speedy retraction this time, six months from when the problems were first noted on PubPeer (https://pubpeer.com/publications/58E5F4120AB02E9565E3B4DE303EC3). Nine years after publication......
