We utilise the knowledge gained from these chemotactic assays to route Physarum polycephalum at a series of junctions. By applying chemical inputs at a simple T-junction we were able to reproducibly control the path taken by the plasmodium of P. Polycephalum. Where the chemoattractant farnesene was used at one input a routed signal could be reproducibly generated i.e. P. Polycephalum moves towards the source of chemoattractant. Where the chemoattractant was applied at both inputs the signal was reproducibly split.
