The front cover artwork is provided by the group of Dr. Baojun Wang (The University of Edinburgh). The image shows an engineered bacterial cell containing a genetic amplifier circuit which transforms a weak input signal into a larger easily detectable output signal. The electronics symbols used to illustrate the genetic circuit highlight the programmability of the circuit components enabled by state‐of‐the‐art synthetic biology tools.

合成生物学使基于细胞的可编程生物传感器成为可能。

封面艺术品由爱丁堡大学的王宝军博士小组提供。该图显示了经过工程改造的细菌细胞，其中包含一个遗传放大电路，该电路将微弱的输入信号转换为较大的易于检测的输出信号。用于说明遗传电路的电子符号突出显示了最新的合成生物学工具支持的电路组件的可编程性。阅读《评论》全文10.1002 / cphc.201900739。
