What if the smallest molecule of life became the ultimate medium for digital storage? Faced with the avalanche of data flooding the planet, researchers are exploring the physical structure of DNA, far ...

DNA nanostructures store and encrypt data using physical shape, enabling fast electronic readout and secure molecular information processing. (Nanowerk News) Since the dawn of the computer age, ...

One night a few years ago, two biologists sat in a bar in Hamburg, discussing DNA. Ewan Birney, the associate director of the European Bioinformatics Institute, and Nick Goldman, a research scientist ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: We are generating staggering amounts of data every day. Data centers just can’t keep up with the demand. With data storage needs expected to soar in ...

Emily Leproust, PhD, co-founder and CEO of Twist Bioscience, spoke with MIT Technology Review about why DNA strands may be the next frontier in the emerging data storage market. Here are six things to ...

DNA data storage is a big deal. Partly, it's because we're based on DNA, and any research into manipulation of that molecule will pay dividends for medicine and biology in general -- but in part, it's ...

An illustration shows a strand of engineered DNA passing through a nanoscale sensor, where its physical structure can be decoded as digital information. DNA nanostructures could one day serve as ultra ...

The value of digital data of all types has always been important, but with the growth of today’s AI models and the data centers that support them, the need for data has exploded. This is an important ...

The Age of AI will rely on massive volumes of data that can be easily stored and retrieved—and bioscience may have an ingenious solution. A scientist examines a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) profile on ...
