Scientists are exploring how DNA’s physical structure can store vast amounts of data and encode secure information.

You might be familiar with a gigabyte, one of the most popular units of measure for computer storage. A two-hour movie is 3 gigabytes on average, while your phone can probably store 256 gigabytes. But ...

Forward-looking: Researchers around the world are embracing DNA-based storage right now. Mixing digital data and biology could bridge the best of both worlds, though a few challenges are still slowing ...

Humanity is generating data faster than it can be stored, and the hard drives and tape libraries that quietly underpin the cloud are already straining to keep up. As the gap widens between what we ...

The value of digital data of all types has always been important, but with the growth of today’s AI models and the data centers that support them, the need for data has exploded. This is an important ...

In the era of big data, global mass data flow has presented data storage systems with a looming challenge. As DNA has incredibly high storage density – a single gram of DNA can store 215,000 terabytes ...

Scientists may be one step closer to creating digital data storage out of DNA after developing a glassy, amber-like material to preserve the molecule. The first DNA sequence to be stored in this way ...

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 ...

Two images were stored in and retrieved from DNA sequences, showcasing how the crucial genetic molecule can also can be used for data storage. Reading time 3 minutes Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the ...

Paris-based startup Biomemory has launched new DNA cards that allow owners to store up to one kilobyte of DNA data on a credit card-sized storage device. It works by converting digital information ...
