What this contributes

Tests a DNA encoding system, including storage in yeast.

The boundary of the evidence

Long-term mutation and recovery require application-specific testing.

Why it belongs here

Molecular storage deliberately encodes information into DNA or associated molecular states. Research covers writing, error correction, protection and retrieval. This is different from sequencing a natural genome, and different again from acquiring a person's memories.
