The Age of AI will rely on massive volumes of data that can be easily stored and retrieved—and bioscience may have an ...

Scientists have recently discovered an innovative approach to data storage by harnessing the natural capabilities of DNA.

Humanity could be brought back from extinction in millions of years after a person’s genome was etched on a crystal and stored in an Austrian cave. The 25mm-long 5D memory crystal includes the ...

Early DNA storage methods actually date back to a 1988 Harvard experiment. Those scientists managed to store an image of one of artist Joe Davis's pieces in an E. coli DNA sequence.

DNA can be used to reliably store a vast amount of digital data. However, retrieval or manipulation of specific data encoded in these molecules has hitherto been difficult. Now, researchers from ...

Microsoft has partnered with a San Francisco-based company to encode information on synthetic DNA to test its potential as a new medium for data storage.
