Why choose AMB-1?: Well...if a kind of bacteria can match all we required...why not?
This year, NYMU-Taipei goes beyond the current realm of mainstream synthetic biology, developing a opto-magnetic probing platform on Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1 which functionally couples to channelrhodopsins (opsins that are ultra-rapidly reactive to light beams of certain wavelengths) to enable activation of neuronal circuitry in a totally wireless, spatially and temporarily accurate, minimally invasive, 3-dimensional multi-site stimulation enabling fasion.
