A breakthrough in DNA research will open up new possibilities for long-term information storage

New technology developed by the Los Alamos National Laboratory allows you to encrypt any

digital files into DNA code. This discovery will bring us closer to translating the necessary information into DNA storage format.

Details

As scientists from the NationalLos Alamos Laboratory, “our technology translates information from the language of computers into the language of biology”. Los Alamos – part of the MIST program – Molecular Information Storage. Their goal – develop a DNA-based storage facility capable of writing 1 terabyte and reading 10 terabytes in 24 hours. In this case, the cost of storage should not exceed $1,000.
