This Thursday from 12:15 to 1:10, Liwei and I will be presenting:
"A Synthetic Genetic Edge Detection Program" by Tabor, et al
The .pdf is attached to the email sent by Cody on Tuesday.
Please try to have your PCRs in by 8pm this evening.
Thanks!

1. The authors have programmed an E. coli population to detect light-dark edges.
2. It's cool, but how is this practically useful?
3. Other circuit parts that living organisms can be programmed into.

1. E. coli have been modified to work as a circuit to sense edges based on light vs. dark.
2. I dont understand the different images: mask, in vivo, in silico.
3. Applications?

1. A massively parallel edge-detection algorithm was implemented in a population of E. coli.
2. What exactly is going on biologically with this?
3. Overview of synthetic biology.

1. The group generated an algorithm that programs an E. coli community to be able to identify light-dark edges.
2. What do they mean by bottom-up study?
3. How you can genetically program electronic circuits.

1. A population of E. coli have been genetically encoded to detect light-dark edges.
2. How does the "Communication" circuit work? (Fig. 3B)
3. Give an example showing in parallel the biology and circuitry.

1. The authors have engineered an E. coli population that can detect light-dark edges.
2. I may have missed the explanation on my rather quick reading of the article, but I don't understand how they programmed the E. coli to detect the edge. Can you explain?
3. Applications?
4. This is pretty cool, also sorry for being late.

1. E. Coli are genetically modified to detect light-dark edges.
2. Please go over some of the more specific steps of the programming, as in Fig.1D.
3. Why the logic/circuitry approach?
