“…These artificial circuits can, therefore, function as fundamental units to modify existing cellular behaviours, and to perform a wide range of tasks of our own interest in programmable organisms [ 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ]. Numerous synthetic circuits were developed for associative learning, decision making, and oscillators, and a brief summary is exhibited in Table 1 [ 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 ]. With the growing collaboration between theorists and experimentalists in almost every discipline, we also noticed a trend in synthetic biology that mathematical models are frequently used to acquire insight, inform troubleshooting, and perform predictions [ 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 ].…”
