Researchers at UC Riverside have found a way to get into your body and your bloodstream. No, they're not spiritual gurus or B-movie mad scientists. Nathaniel G. Portney, Yonghui Wu, Stefano Lonardi, and Mihri Ozkan from UCR's departments of Bioengineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Biochemistry, and Electrical Engineering, and the Center for Nanoscale Science and Engineering, are just talented when it comes to manipulating DNA.
In their paper, "Length-based Encoding of Binary Data in DNA," which was published by the American Chemical Society last month, the researchers discovered a system to encode digital information within DNA. This method relies on the length of the fragments obtained by the partial restriction digest rather than the actual content of the nucleotide sequence. As a result, the technology eliminates the need to use expensive sequencing machinery.
FuRuy has opened a Twitter account called “Project Alice” teasing a new game announcement on April 25 at 20:30 JST.

You can get Hall effect controllers slightly cheaper, but you'd struggle to find as feature-rich a package without some heavy, heavy sales.
That's 750MB PER DNA STRAND.
We could store petabytes of data in mere droplets of space.
Can't wait to see what else the future holds :P.
Use a piece of hair as the storage space for all your data! XD.
(Wishes I lived 100 years in the future <_<.)
I guess being a spy just got a whole lot easier!
woah... PORN!!!
They found a way to store nearly a gig in a strand of dna and yet we have to pay 50 bucks for a 1 gig memory stick? Hurry up and het this tech out there!
Dammit, Sony's going to use that in the PS9 afterall!! What if they start injecting us with data, will I have to buy Symantec branded condoms?
