Field-effect transistors based on carbon nanotubes have been shown to be faster and less energy consuming than their silicon counterparts. However, ensuring these advantages are maintained for ...

Did you know you can build fundamental circuits using biological methods? These aren’t your average circuits, but they work just like common electrical components. We talk alot about normal silicon ...

Engineers have created genetic circuits in bacterial cells that not only perform logic functions, but also remember the results, which are encoded in the cell's DNA and passed on for dozens of ...

Biocomputing—it’s not just for Star Trek Borgs anymore! Scientists at Johns Hopkins have engineered cells that behave like AND and OR Boolean logic gates, taking an important step toward using living ...
