Memory is traditionally associated with complex organisms that have a nervous system. However, simple organisms can store information about previous experiences, such as nutrient sources, for survival purposes. Organisms like the unicellular slime mold Physarum polycephalum utilizes its network of interlaced tubes in varying diameters that shrink and grow in response […]
International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM), Berkeley
iGEM at Berkeley is a for students by students organization focused on developing synthetic and computational biology research projects. It gives members the opportunity to develop experimental design, synthetic biology, and literature search/design skills.
