Scientists are exploring how DNA’s physical structure can store vast amounts of data and encode secure information.

DNA, the genetic blueprints in every living organism, is nature's most efficient storage mechanism, capable of storing about ...

Since the dawn of the computer age, researchers have wrestled with two persistent challenges: how to store ever-increasing reams of data and how to protect that information from unintended access. Now ...

Researchers at national and university labs are closing in ways to use the basic building blocks of life to store massive amounts of data, which could offer federal agencies a more effective way to ...

In a world first, a ‘biological camera’ bypasses the constraints of current DNA storage methods, harnessing living cells and their inherent biological mechanisms to encode and store data. This ...

You might be familiar with a gigabyte, one of the most popular units of measure for computer storage. A two-hour movie is 3 gigabytes on average, while your phone can probably store 256 gigabytes. But ...

French digital data startup Biomemory SAS has announced what it claims is the first instance of DNA-based storage being made available to the general public, with the launch of its new DNA memory ...

The MarketWatch News Department was not involved in the creation of this content. Atlas Eon 100 ushers in a new era of scalable, ultra-dense, long duration digital storage SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 2, ...

DNA, the blueprint of life, is best known for its fundamental role as genetic material—storing and transmitting biological information through the precise sequence of its bases. For decades, this ...

A full DNA computer is a step closer, thanks to a new technology that could store petabytes of data in DNA for thousands or even millions of years. The system can also process data, as demonstrated by ...
