For decades, researchers have worked toward scalable data storage in DNA’s four nucleotides (A, T, G and C). The technology, once mastered, would yield millions of times greater efficiency, but impediments in reliability and read/write speeds have stymied the arrival of a true paradigm shift in archival storage. Now, a team led by researchers from the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) has advanced DNA storage with a microchip that can quickly and cheaply grow DNA strands for high-density storage.
