We aim to develop a light-controlled 3D-printer by innovative utilization of optogenetics. As a first step, we want to develop a genetic logical AND-gate sensitive to light of two different wavelengths (e.g. blue and red light). The bacteria are then immobilized in a transparent gel matrix, where they can be precisely actuated when hit by both blue and red light at the same time. If both of these inputs are positive, gene expression is induced. Various different gene products can be expressed using this system.

We give a short introduction on the topic and explain how we came up with our idea.
The functionality of our project is described in a more detailed fashion.
This is a short outlook on how our AND-Gate could be used in future applications.
This Section gives an overview over the created parts and characterised BioBricks.

Depicts the different components of our model.
Here we give an explanation on how we derived the equations for our model.
This shows our modeling results for the complete system.
The methods used to characterise parameters are explained here.

Here you can find a short Introduction to our efforts including our video, comic and book.
Here we list where we were featured in the media.
This section shows our experiences with students on a high school level.
We even visited kids in kindergartens and and gave them an insight into synthetic biology!
