Create Cellular Network Engineering

Develop methods to design and build custom cellular communication networks that can coordinate complex multi-cellular behaviors and functions. Current approaches to engineering multicellular systems are limited to simple interactions. Advanced cellular network engineering would involve designing communication protocols between cells, creating cellular circuits that can process information, and building multicellular systems that can perform complex computations or coordinated behaviors. This challenge requires understanding natural cellular communication, developing synthetic communication systems, and creating design principles for multicellular networks. Success would enable building biological computers, coordinated tissue engineering, and multicellular systems that can perform complex tasks through distributed cellular cooperation.
