The ENCyclopedia Of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project is a public research consortium that aims to identify all functional elements of the human genome sequence (Encode, 2004 Science).The ENCODE pilot ...

The results of a gigantic biology project — called ENCODE — were released today. The project covered ten years of effort by over 400 scientists and has culminated in 30 scientific papers published ...

Information can be encoded into all sorts of patterns, whether it’s short and long beeps for Morse code, raised bumps for Braille, or ones and zeroes for computers. Now researchers have demonstrated a ...

Encoding information in DNA has long seemed like a promising way to secure data for the long term, but so far it has required an expert touch. It turns out that you don’t need to be a scientist to ...

Photons, in the form of optical pulses, radio waves, and the like, have been used to transmit data for decades. The next phase will probably involve using the quantum states of the photons themselves ...

Back in 2001, the Human Genome Project gave us a nigh-complete readout of our DNA. Somehow, those As, Gs, Cs, and Ts contained the full instructions for making one of us, but they were hardly a simple ...

Suchi Rudra is a writer whose work has appeared in The New York Times, BBC, and Vice, among other publications. Storing digital data in RNA? It sounds like science fiction, but it’s not. Researchers ...

Preclinical data show the vectorized miRNA candidate achieved durable knockdown of SCN9A (Na V 1.7), a genetically validated pain target historically difficult to modulate In non-human primates, ...
