Research
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.
