Briefing
|
- DNA Data Storage – Researchers used CRISPR technology to encode image and short movie into E coli DNA with 90% accuracy when retrieved
- CRISPR Genome System – CRISPR (i.e. genome section that is clustered, regularly interspaced, short palindromic repeats) grabs data disguised as piece of DNA from viral invaders then files it to generate chronological record
- Storing Digital Data – Harvard scientists and Microsoft reported storing data in DNA, but not succeeded in encoding data into living organism
- Expected Outcome – Aims to lead to development of new methods for generating cells, useful in regenerative therapy, disease modeling, and drug testing
