Researchers at Hebrew University have engineered human cells capable of processing multiple biological signals at once, functioning much like small computer chips. In a study published in Nature Communications in June 2026, PhD student Keren Roas and Dr Lior Nissim describe an artificial genetic system that lets cells follow layered instructions without the usual drop-off in reliability that complex genetic circuits typically suffer.

Conventional genetic circuits work like a skyscraper: every additional instruction requires an........
