Bacteria have neither eyes to see, nor ears to hear, nor mouths to speak with. So how do they communicate with each other or find food? Somehow, their functions are hard-wired into their DNA, including switches and delayed responses. Come learn about the genetic circuits nature has produced, and how we humans have taken control of them for our own nefarious purposes. We will introduce and use a little Boolean algebra.
