In a remarkable fusion of biology and technology, a DNA-based computer that performs effectively has been created by scientists. This innovative breakthrough promises to redefine the boundaries of ...

Olympus Optical Co. Ltd. has developed what the company claims is the first commercially practical DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) computer that specializes in gene analysis, the company announced earlier ...

Ground has been broken on developing “computers” made of DNA. Researchers from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China demonstrated that they could build DNA integrated circuits (DICs) for ...

DNA is nature’s computing device. Unlike data centers, DNA is incredibly compact. These molecules package an entire organism’s genetic blueprint into tiny but sophisticated structures inside each cell ...

A new computer program allows scientists to design synthetic DNA segments that indicate, in real time, the state of cells. It will be used to screen for anti-cancer or viral infections drugs, or to ...

In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...
