Living bacteria engineered to act as transistors in biological circuits
NikoMcCarty · x · 2026-08-18
Researchers have engineered bacterial strains to function as N- or P-type transistors, using molecules instead of electrons for signal transmission. These strains can be printed on plates via liquid handlers to build arbitrary logic gates, creating circuit boards from living matter.
