The UCSD logo is depicted using approximately 1 million E. coli cells growing in 154 independent colonies in a microfluidic device. The cells are engineered using synthetic biology to oscillate production of GFP (in blue). Each colony communicates to itself, through quorum sensing, and to neighboring colonies, through redox signaling. The result is a globally synchronized oscillator that can be modified to spell words or make shapes. This image illustrates the power of a million individual living cells acting in harmony. We plan to use arrays like this to detect toxins or produce medicines and fuels.

Biologically Inspired Engineering: From Human Organs-on-Chips to Programmable Nanotherapeutics
Dr. Donald Ingber
Professor of Bioengineering, Harvard John. A. Paulson School of Engineering & Applied Sciences
Abstract
The Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University that I lead has pioneered a new model for innovation, trans-disciplinary collaboration and technology translation. I will highlight engineering of “Organs-on-Chips” that recapitulate organ-level structure and functions as a way to replace animal testing for drug development, mechanistic discovery, and personalized medicine; nanotherapeutics that target to vascular occlusion sites like artificial platelets; anticoagulant surface coatings for medicine devices inspired by a plant; a ‘biospleen’ device that cleanses blood of pathogens and toxins in septic patients; and self-assembling DNA-based nanorobots that can be programmed to travel to cancer sites and kill tumor cells. This new bioinspired technology wave represents a major paradigm shift in medicine, and the novel organizational structure of the Institute offers an entirely new way to translate discoveries into breakthrough products in the academic setting.

Construction is starting to wrap up on the new bioengineering building, but the lot to the left is scheduled for something of its own.
