The completion of the first draft of the human genome has led to
an explosion of interest in genetics and molecular biology. The view of
the genome as a network of interacting computational components is
well-established, but researchers are now trying to reverse the
analogy, by using living organisms to construct logic circuits. The
potential applications for such technologies is huge, ranging from
bio-sensors, through industrial applications to drug delivery and
diagnostics. This book would be the first to deal with the
implementation of this technology, describing several working
experimental demonstrations using cells as components of logic
circuits, building toward computers incorporating biological components
in their functioning.
