    Abstract: Disclosed herein include methods, compositions, and kits suitable for use in spatiotemporal regulation of therapeutic T-cells through a combination of molecular and physical actuation. There are provided, in some embodiments, thermal bioswitches that allow T-cells to sense small changes in temperature and use them as inputs for the actuation of genetic circuits. Also disclosed herein are T cell activity sensors. Genetic circuits capable of inducing expression of a payload upon thermal stimulation and/or immune cell stimulation are provided. There are provided, in some embodiments, thermally actuated immune cells and methods of using are provided. Oscillator circuits and methods of preventing T cell exhaustion are also disclosed.
