This paper develops probiotic biosensors that use ultrasound to noninvasively image gut inflammation in mice, improving diagnosis of IBD.

This paper shows that Spo0A~P pulsing frequency controls biofilm matrix deactivation in B. subtilis, independent of growth rate effects on gene dosage and protein dilution.

The paper optimizes a microbial biosensor to detect and respond to the clinically relevant intestinal inflammation biomarker calprotectin.

The paper derives an Engineering Error Inequality to estimate measurement precision requirements for genetic regulatory network engineering and validates these requirements using flow cytometry data.

The paper demonstrates that mean and noise of gene expression can be independently controlled in E. coli by using two inducible promoters and shows how repressor noise affects promoter response.

The paper develops a high-throughput method to identify peptide activators of the bacterial sensor kinase PhoPQ and finds distinct AMP response profiles across bacterial species.

This study uses optogenetic control to manipulate gut bacterial metabolism in C. elegans and shows that increased colanic acid production extends lifespan.

The paper engineers a synthetic genetic system enabling bacteria to have two separate conversations over a single chemical wire by separating conversations in time.

The paper develops a two-state photoconversion model to predict and program gene expression dynamics in optogenetic systems with high accuracy.
