DARPA is offering grants through the Advanced Plant Technologies (APT) program to investigate the feasibility of engineering plant varieties as independent biosensors. Researchers are tasked with creating plants that can respond to stimuli and emit measurable signals. The goal is to push the boundaries of plant capabilities and revolutionize the field of biosensing. Applications for this grant are open until Feb 21, 2018.
