Back to Turing Patterns


Note: This project was finally left undeveloped and hopefully it will be completed next year.


The Scheme

We want to create Turing patterns by means of a genetic devise. Such patterns have benn succesfully generated by means of an oscillatory chemeical reaction such as the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belousov-Zhabotinsky_reaction Belousov-Zhabotinsky_reaction].
