Rebecca Schulman is a professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Hopkins who is currently working on developing new materials that both contain and process information. Schulman recently ...

Researchers have demonstrated a technology capable of a suite of data storage and computing functions -- repeatedly storing, retrieving, computing, erasing or rewriting data -- that uses DNA rather ...

Neural networks are computing systems designed to mimic both the structure and function of the human brain. Caltech researchers have been developing a neural network made out of strands of DNA instead ...

The boundaries of computer technology are being redefined as biology merges with electronics. At the forefront of this evolution lies an innovative concept—a liquid computer powered by DNA. With the ...

Engineered DNA can store massive amounts of data while also encrypting it, opening the door to ultra-secure, long-term ...

Each year, zettabytes of data are produced globally, which is comparable to the number of stars in the observable universe. This number is increasing at a rapid pace, and in 2025, global yearly data ...

(Nanowerk News) DNA stores the instructions for life and, along with enzymes and other molecules, computes everything from hair color to risk of developing diseases. Harnessing that prowess and ...

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 ...

In what they're calling the first evidence of a DNA-based exploit of a computer system, a team of scientists have successfully shown that a computer can be hacked through malicious code incorporated ...

A new DNA computer calculates square roots of perfect squares up to 900. Like quantum computers, DNA computers are an exciting frontier of post-silicon computing. Where previous examples were up to 4 ...
