We designed a circuit capable of producing patterns in a controlled way. Using a modified and temperature-sensitive lambda repressor (cI), we can trigger this structure formation at desired points in time. This time-dependent controllability, together with the possibility to change many different parameters and output signals, leads to an enormous tunability in the creation of the patterns, providing advancements in a variety of industrial processes like for example the creation of novel bio-materials. On the other hand, this fundamental project could also speed up medical research projects on among others tumor formation and tissue regeneration.

We designed a circuit capable of forming patterns in a controlled way. Using a modified and temperature-sensitive lambda repressor (cI), we can trigger formation at desired points in time. This time-dependent controllability, together with the possibility to change many different parameters and output signals, leads to an enormous tunability in the creation of the patterns. Our mechanism will stimulate advancements in a variety of industrial processes like the creation of novel bio-materials. This fundamental project could also speed up medical research projects like tumor formation and tissue regeneration.
