Future development of synthetic biological systems will require the implementation of reliable synthetic circuits. These genetic circuits will be designed to program new biological behaviour, dynamics, and logic control<sup>[[Team:ETH_Zurich/project/references#refWeiss|[1]]]</sup>. A well established multichannel orthogonal communication system is crucial for efficient biological computation which is subsequently required for the performance of the cells tasks. In order to achieve the goals of our project we need to thoroughly characterise available components, improve their performance, and develop novel constructs for robust multichannel orthogonal communication and subsequent logic processing. With our findings we will try to make a contribution to the field of biological computation by enabling further development of complex systems that depend on the interaction between its sub components.
