In new research, Alex Green, an assistant professor at ASU’s Biodesign Institute, demonstrates how living cells can be induced to carry out computations in the manner of tiny robots or computers. The ...

Cells in nature have to respond to environmental stimuli with a complex repertoire of responses. In effect, they make computations that require processing that is both analog, like adjusting to a ...

Genetic engineers can design and assemble sophisticated gene circuits to program cells with new functions, but important ...

Engineers have designed cells that can count and "remember" cellular events, using simple circuits in which a series of genes are activated in a specific order. MIT and Boston University engineers ...

Genetic circuits control the activity of genes and thereby the function of cells and organisms. Scientists have shown how various genetic circuits in bacterial cells are influenced by growth ...

Neurogliaform cells are a novel subtype of hippocampal and cortical local-circuit GABAergic inhibitory interneuron that primarily reside within the superficial layers of the cortex and hippocampal ...

Complex brain circuits in rodents can organize themselves with genetics playing only a secondary role, according to a new computer modelling study published today in eLife. The findings help answer a ...

In this project, we design a Cell Phone or Mobile Phone Jammer Circuit. This circuit can be used in TV transmission and also for remote controlled toys or play things. In this project, we design a ...

Looking at some anecdotal stories as well as some reasonably valid survey data, it seems that STEM-related subjects are getting serious interest from students at all age levels; STEM stands for ...

The orientation of a line at a given position in visual space is represented by a small volume of primary visual cortex, known as an orientation column. Although cells within such a column share some ...

It is easy enough to make software do what you want it to. You could tell your email client to recognise and immediately delete any unwanted messages – say, any from your mother-in-law that contain ...
