Adaptive artificial evolution of droplet protocells in a 3D-printed fluidic chemorobotic platform with configurable environments
Few studies have explored the effect of a changing environment on artificial chemical evolution. Here, the authors develop an evolutionary platform that alters the physical environment of droplet protocells, showing that a population of simple chemical species can adapt to its surroundings, in analo...
