NEW PARADIGM for computing. "The biomolecular computer is powerful enough to break genetic codes ... gene therapy and genetic cloning. There's no traditional CPU or hard drive powering the bio-computer, no hardware or software, nor is there any tangible interface to the system: it's all made possible by molecular interaction, a series of programmable chemical events that take place in a solution.""

BODY ON A CHIP: " project replicates human cells to print structures which mimic the functions of the heart, liver, lung and blood vessels... the first to combine several organs on the same device, which then model the human response to chemical toxins or biologic agents. But the bioprinting of full size solid organs might not be far away."" " http://lnkd.in/bWHVR94 View in LinkedIn

BIOTRANSCRIPTOR first synbio computer inside living cell. "Using snippets of DNA and DNA-clipping chemicals, researchers have created one key component of a computer’s brain: the transistor, a switch that helps electronics perform logic. The biological switch, dubbed a transcriptor, could be plugged together with other biological devices to boost the power of DNA-based computers.""

REMARKABLE STANFORD TEAM last year delivered rewritable digital storage on DNA, and the transmission of information between cells, effectively an internet between cells. Then this year, they delivered the biological transistor and programable logic gates. A startling triple crown, donated to the public domaine to speed development.

DIFFERENT QUESTIONS for living computers. "Timothy Lu, who leads the Synthetic Biology Group at MIT, is working on similar cellular logic tools. “You can’t deliver a silicon chip into cells inside the body, so you have to build circuits out of DNA and proteins. The goal is not to replace computers, but to open up biological applications that conventional computing simply cannot address.”" " http://lnkd.in/b3gTYYs. View in LinkedIn

WRAP YOUR NOGGIN around this one and its implications. “In addition to its enhanced computation power, this DNA-based transducer offers multiple benefits, such as the ability to read and transform genetic information, miniaturization to the molecular scale, and the aptitude to produce computational results, which interact directly with living organisms.”" " http://lnkd.in/bm9pBC3 View in LinkedIn
