DNA DATA STORAGE. "One pound of DNA has the capacity to store more information than all the electronic computers ever built;­ and the computing power of a teardrop-sized DNA computer, using the DNA logic gates, will be more powerful than the world's most powerful supercomputer. More than 10 trillion DNA molecules can fit into an area no larger than 1 cubic centimeter (0.06 cubic inches). With this small amount of DNA, a computer would be able to hold 10 terabytes of data, and perform 10 trillion calculations at a time.."" " http://lnkd.in/bh_CHs4 View in LinkedIn

EXTEMPORANEOUS SPEECHES were a hallmark of tales in the Odyssey, where feasts in great banquet halls of the fifth century BC had long soliloquies to charm the guests. In our age of texting, instant messaging and speed-dating I find it so refreshing that the art for is alive and well at big Catalan dinners. Last night 20 dinner guest at a banquet had their turn to say something, in full sentences, in uninterrupted paragraphs, with a beginning,a middle and an end. Charming 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

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

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.
