MIT Engineers Turn Bacteria into Living Transistors That Can Compute

[tkc]

Scientists at MIT have engineered bacteria to work like tiny transistors, creating “living circuits” that can process information and perform basic calculations. The technology could eventually allow plants to detect problems such as drought or pests and automatically respond. In ordinary electronics, transistors are tiny switches that control the flow of electrical current. Billions of […]
