Immortal hard drive: US firm launches world’s first scalable DNA data storage
A US-based biotechnology company has launched the Atlas Eon 100, the first scalable service utilizing synthetic DNA for data ...
This radical new method could preserve our entire knowledge base for thousands of years, in a storage medium the size of a coffee cup.
As the creation of digital data outpaces its ability to store it, scientists are turning to a solution found in nature itself: DNA. Scientists have developed an experimental “DNA cassette tape” to ...
New 'cassette tape' made of DNA has the capacity to store 36 petabytes of data, which could change the future of digital ...
In context: Due to its mind-boggling density, scientists have explored using DNA as a data storage medium for years. A single gram of DNA could theoretically hold a staggering 215,000 terabytes of ...
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 ...
In context: Researchers have long explored DNA's unique properties as a medium for digital storage. So far, the experiments have fallen short of practical applications. However, new DNA-based ...
For the first time, a multidisciplinary team of researchers have demonstrated a proof of principle of all the capabilities needed for a functioning computer—storing, retrieving, processing, erasing, ...
Biomemory SAS, a company that focuses on developing DNA-based data storage devices, today announced it has raised $18 million in an early-stage funding to complete the development of the first ...
DNA has been humanity’s go-to data repository for millennia. Tough and compact, it is so information-dense that just one gram of it can hold enough data for 10 million hours of high-definition video.
To test DNA’s media-storage capabilities, Erlich, an assistant professor of computer science at Columbia University in New York City, and Dina Zielinski, a senior associate scientist at the New York ...
