Cellular automata modelling of slime mould actin network signalling (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016, The Author(s). Actin is a cytoskeletal protein which forms dense, highly interconnected networks within eukaryotic cells. A growing body of evidence suggests that actin-mediated intra- and extracellular signalling is instrumental in facilitat...

Practical circuits with Physarum Wires (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016, Korean Society of Medical and Biological Engineering and Springer. Purpose: Protoplasmic tubes of Physarum polycephalum, also know as Physarum Wires (PW), have been previously suggested as novel bio-electronic components. Until recently, prac...

On modulating the Physarum polycephalum plasmodium's electrical resistance, resting membrane potential and capacitance by application of nanoparticles and nanostructures (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Physarum polycephalum is a model organism used in the creation of hybrid artificial-biological devices. Among its demonstrated uses in biocomputing it is able to grow self healing 'wires' which can be used to...

On coupled oscillator dynamics and incident behaviour patterns in slime mould Physarum polycephalum: emergence of wave packets, global streaming clock frequencies and anticipation of periodic stimuli (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. Slime mould Physarum polycephalum is a single cell which physically oscillates via contraction of actomyosin in order to achieve motility. Several of its apparently ‘intelligent’ behavio...

Living wires — Effects of size and coating of gold nanoparticles in altering the electrical properties of Physarum polycephalum and lettuce seedlings (2016)
Journal Article

The manipulation of biological substrates is becoming more popular route toward generating novel computing devices.
Physarum polycephalum is used as a model organism in biocomputingbecause it can create "wires" for use in hybrid circuits; programmab...

On the development of slime mould morphological, intracellular and heterotic computing devices (2016)
Thesis

The use of live biological substrates in the fabrication of unconventional computing (UC) devices is steadily transcending the barriers between science fiction and reality, but efforts in this direction are impeded by ethical considerations, the fiel...
