Episode 48, October 31, 2018 – Dr. Strauss talks about life at the intersection of computer science and biology which, for many, is more like the intersection of science fiction and science, and explains how the unique properties of DNA…
The prospect of storing vast amounts of data on DNA has come closer to reality thanks to a new technique for retrieving data.
University of Washington and Microsoft researchers revealed today that they have taken a significant step forward in their quest to develop a DNA-based storage system for digital data.
Text files as well audio, images and a high-definition music video featuring the band OK Go were first digitally encoded, and then converted into chemical coding—that is, adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine, which make up the ATCG alphabet for DNA…
