Define XOR logic gates and how it was used with biological inputs and outputs

   Present concept of XOR and the autoinducers

Describe different design architectures

   Modeling of biological hash function

Describe cellular communication systems used

   Lux, Lsr, Las
   parts contributed
   Constructs tested
   Systems for sending and receiving

Discuss need for delayed growth (common problem with many projects in the past) Show movie of growth and model of same

Present Hybrid Promoter Designs cartoon fashion (3 major different types) Hybrid promoters designed, constructed, tested

   XOR logic gates designed, constructed, tested

Show data we have with new parts

   Experimental data on XOR gate
