The article makes no mention of Michael Levin [1], one of the main researchers/labs, around bioelectricity/xenobots. A recent talk of his [2]. Secondly, bioelectricity has nothing or very little to do with electric currents as the one from the socket. There is no "brain zapping" involved or required. In the paper [3] detailing an adult frog limb amputation and full regeneration over 18 months, Michael Levin's lab used a single bioreactor with silk hydrogels applied only for 24 hours (see BioDome fabrication in the paper).
