Hi,
In my presentation i said that i am IT lovers. So i just read an article published by Microsoft that said DNA Storage.
The principle of operation is complex, but follows the rules already set by nature: DNA contains molecules that have instructions on how living systems, scientists do nothing more than replace this information with digital data, photos, videos and documents.
Initially the digital data ( In binary code, 0 an 1) are translated into the letters of the four basic nucleotides of DNA: adenosine, cytosine, guanosine and thymidine. At that point the letters (even in digital format) are stored inside the molecules and merge along the DNA strings.
Microsoft and UW team managed to impress on DNA strings the high-definition video "This Too Shall Pass", the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in more than 100 languages and the first 100 books of the Project Guttenberg.
The DNA has many advantages: it is compact, dense and is preserved over time but the real problem is synthesizing time (encoding) and sequence (decoding) data.
So what do you think ?
I hope this article is interesting for someone and please let me know your opinion.
Thanks for reading
