Imagine using the same biological code that builds humans to store digital files instead of hard drives. This system turns data into synthetic DNA, which lasts much longer and takes up almost no space. It's like replacing a massive, power-hungry warehouse of servers with a tiny, energy-efficient biological library.
Current data storage cannot keep up with global data growth and consumes too much energy. Existing DNA storage is too complex and expensive, requiring specialist laboratories.
An autonomous DNA microfactory prototype that encodes, synthesizes, stores, and decodes digital data. It includes a dual-level encoding scheme for disaster recovery and ISO-compliant archival specifications.
If you are a medical diagnostic center dealing with massive volumes of veterinary medical diagnostics data — this project developed a DNA microfactory that provides a durable, low-energy way to archive patient records for decades.
If you are a quality assurance lab dealing with high-resolution non-destructive testing images — this project developed an autonomous archiving system that reduces the energy cost of long-term storage.
If you are a national archive dealing with patrimonial data that must be preserved for centuries — this project developed a DNA storage solution compliant with ISO 14721 standards to ensure data resilience.
Based on available project data, the project focuses on creating cost-effective techniques for sequencing library preparation to reduce the price of reading back data.
The project is developing the groundwork for a scalable, autonomous DNA microfactory designed to handle high volume data.
The consortium is currently in the process of securing intellectual property protection for their encoding schemes and sequencing techniques.
Yes, the solution is designed to be compliant with the Open Archival Information System (OAIS) reference model (ISO 14721).
The project is defining interfaces, communication protocols, and an IT structure specifically adapted for high volume data integration.
The consortium is well-balanced for commercialization, featuring 9 partners with a strong 44% industry representation. With 4 SMEs and 5 universities across 5 countries, the group combines academic research with the practical agility of small businesses to move the technology toward market adoption.
