Primary studyDNA as a storage medium
Random access DNA memory using Boolean search in an archival file storage system
What this contributes
Demonstrates selective retrieval of DNA files using barcoded silica capsules.
The boundary of the evidence
A laboratory proof of concept, not a perpetual archive.
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.
