This paper demonstrates associative learning and memory erasure in a synthetic multicellular system using five E. coli strains communicating via a shared quorum-sensing signal.

The paper demonstrates that RNA interference in mammalian cells exhibits self-organized criticality through feedback mechanisms, leading to scale-free bursts and power-law distributions in gene expression.

This study shows that sessile and mobile cognitive strategies evolve as alternative solutions to foraging in uncertain environments, depending on resource return structures and ecological feedbacks.

The paper develops a theoretical framework to assess the invasion potential of mirror life in ecosystems, showing ecological constraints limit its establishment.

This paper designs synthetic genetic circuits to implement non-associative learning behaviors in unicellular and multicellular systems.

This paper designs and evaluates minimal genetic circuits that enable cells to anticipate environmental trends through deterministic and stochastic analyses.

The paper designs synthetic genetic circuits in E. coli to demonstrate Turing pattern formation through an activator-inhibitor mechanism.
