Scientists are exploring DNA-based robots, tiny molecular machines that could one day navigate the body, deliver targeted therapies, and even build nanoscale technologies.

French DNA storage pioneer Biomemory has acquired rival Catalog, and told us where it sees the technology in the years ahead.

A new class of autonomous nanorobots built from reconfigurable DNA origami arrays has been developed by researchers from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Emory University, and the Georgia ...

A label-free nanopore platform uses programmable DNA circuits to build versatile molecular logic gates, forming a universal basis for scalable DNA computing and advanced biosensing applications.

In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...

DNA nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary field that exploits the inherent base-pairing rules of DNA to design and assemble nanoscale structures with high precision. These engineered constructs have ...
