Human DNA contains the genetic code for what makes up a human, and now it's being used to create an "easy-to-use" antenna. The team of chemists behind the world's smallest antenna comes from the ...

The development of DNA-/RNA-based drugs, like COVID-19 vaccines, is exploding. Current methods are costly, but researchers are finding effective and inexpensive method for producing stable, modified ...

Nanoscale “robots” made of DNA that rapidly self-replicate could be harnessed to manufacture drugs or other chemicals inside the body, say researchers. Tiny machines made of DNA origami may make ...

University of Queensland researchers have developed an affordable, open-source DNA measurement tool that can be built using a home 3D printer. The Do-It-Yourself Nucleic Acid Fluorometer—DIYNAFLUOR—is ...

Filling a test tube with molecules made from folded DNA can work as a simple computer. The approach has been used to split two numbers into prime factors. Conventional computers work by passing ...

In our bodies, there are trillions of cells. From white blood cells to skin cells, each type has its own specific function which helps us perform tasks and survive. But what makes up these cells and ...
