We know "Wi-Fi"; but what is "Bi-Fi" ?
“Bi-Fi” or "Biological Internet" is a term coined by bioengineers of Stanford University to refer to a biological mechanism to send genetic messages from cell to cell.
Scientists from the University developed a mechanism which acts like a wireless Internet connection that enables cells to communicate in a cellular network and nicknamed it "Biological Internet" or “Bi-Fi”.
Interestingly “Bi-Fi” is neither an abbreviation nor acronym. It is a term derived from "Wi-Fi" which is one of the most known terms in ICE ( Information, Communication and Entertainment) related technology. "Wi-Fi" is the abbreviation of Wireless Fidelity and refers to a local area network that uses high frequently radio signals to transmit and receive date over smaller distances.
