Scientists are finding ways to merge biology with electronics, unlocking new possibilities for data storage and computing.

DNA, long known as the molecule that carries genetic information, is taking on a new role in science. Researchers now see it as a powerful building material for machines so small they operate at the ...

A recent review published in the journal SmartBot says these DNA nanorobots could one day be capable of delivering drugs to specific locations in the body, capturing viruses like SARS-CoV-2, and even ...

As the quest for AI’s breakthrough use case is ongoing, the ubiquity of AI tools is already clear—embedded in our personal devices and set to transform all aspects of our lives. Yet this rise collides ...

Scientists are continuously looking for a way to improve the storage capacity on hard drives, but they might need to be ...

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 ...

DNA nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary field that exploits the inherent base-pairing rules of DNA to design and assemble nanoscale structures with high precision. These engineered constructs have ...

DNA robots are emerging as tiny programmable machines that could one day deliver drugs, hunt viruses, and build ...
