New DNA storage tech aims for 215,000 TB per gram goal — writes to the ‘epi-bits’ of existing DNA with movable-type-based method — Tomshardware

Peking University researchers recently published their study outlining a new method for encoding data on DNA strands. Rather than traditional methods which create new strands “de novo”, this method uses a movable-type system based on DNA methylation which can encode data on existing strands.Peking University researchers recently published their study outlining a new method for encoding data on DNA strands.
