Scientists have discovered that DNA behaves in a surprising way when squeezed through tiny nanopores, overturning a long-held ...

Since the dawn of the computer age, researchers have wrestled with two persistent challenges: how to store ever-increasing ...

Engineered DNA can store massive amounts of data while also encrypting it, opening the door to ultra-secure, long-term ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...

Similarly to the artistic technique of folding paper into ornate shapes, DNA origami is a self-assembling technique of precisely folding single-stranded DNA scaffolds into well-defined nanostructures.

Johnson and Alistar competed as finalists in CU Boulder’s 2025 Lab Venture Challenge where their technology generated much interest from industry leaders. Access to DNA is crucial in many branches of ...

A small team of materials scientists and chemical engineers at Qingdao University, in China, has developed a self-powered, three-component biosensor that can kill bacteria in water samples. The study ...
