In a remarkable fusion of biology and technology, a DNA-based computer that performs effectively has been created by scientists. This innovative breakthrough promises to redefine the boundaries of ...

The central goal of nanotechnology is the manipulation of materials on an atomic or molecular scale, especially to build microscopic devices or structures. Three-dimensional cages are one of the most ...

DNA contains the genetic information needed to build life. The discovery of its molecular structure by Francis Crick and James Watson is one of the greatest breakthroughs in the history of biology. At ...

Imagine if you could "print" a tiny skyscraper using DNA instead of steel. That’s what researchers at Columbia and Brookhaven are doing—constructing intricate 3D nanostructures by harnessing the ...

Researchers at the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University have created more than 100 3-D nanostructures using DNA building blocks that function like Lego bricks — a ...

These much larger 3D printouts illustrate the meshwork test shapes Scientists have come up with an improved method for building tiny 3D structures out of strands of DNA. Using an approach from ...
