Emergent adaptive behaviour of GRN-controlled simulated robots in a changing environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We developed a bio-inspired robot controller combining an artificial genome with an agent-based control system. The genome encodes a gene regulatory network (GRN) that is switched on by environmental cues and, following the rules of transcriptional ...

Bio-inspired strategies for designing antifouling biomaterials [PDF]

open access: yesBiomaterials Research, 2016
Abstract Contamination of biomedical devices in a biological medium, biofouling, is a major cause of infection and is entirely avoidable. This mini-review will coherently present the broad range of antifouling strategies, germicidal, preventive and cleaning using one or more of biological, chemical and physical techniques.
