Description	Bioelectricity plays an important role in regulating various metabolic processes in living tissues. In view of inherent electromagnetic phenomenon of the living tissues, the external electrical stimulation can be used to regulate the various metabolic processes in cells/tissues. Therefore, the coupling between the internal and external electric field is critical in deciding its successful implication. In this perspective, understanding of the electrical phenomenon in living beings can be effectively utilized in mimicking these inherent phenomena using external electrical stimuli. Overall, understanding the science of bioelectricity will help in developing such technologies to simulate tissue physiologically as well as pathophysiologically. This becomes important as the inherent electricity of the body is actively used to monitor and regulate a number of physiological functions in the body. This chapter emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary approach towards the development of comprehensive understanding for the interaction of living cell with external electrical stimulation along with its consequences.
