Engineering a Living Drug Factory
As the immune system’s equivalent of guided missiles, T-cells offer a seemingly ideal approach to disease management. They actively locate diseased cells and, after arriving at their target, exert a therapeutic effect proportionate to the disease burden. Unfortunately, many diseases such as cancer, autoimmune disorders and viral infections have immunological roots, and have become proficient…

Modular Antigen-Specific T-cell Biofactories for Calibrated In Vivo Synthesis of Engineered Proteins
An artificial cell-signaling pathway is developed that capitalizes on the T-cell’s innate extravasation ability and transforms it into a vector for synthesizing calibrated amounts of engineered proteins in vivo.

The Future of Augmentation
The “Mother of All Demos” on December 9, 1968 was a truly seminal event. Doug Engelbart and his SRI team introduced to the world forms of human-computer interaction that are now ubiquitous: a screen divided into windows, typing integrated with a pointing device, hypertext, shared-screen teleconferencing. While these innovations have had enormous impact, they are…
