Chinese scientists have developed a simplified technique to create DNA-based programmable gate arrays (DPGAs), versatile computing units. Previous DPGAs were complex, hindering production. This new method combines DNA origami and chemical reactions to simplify design and produce DPGAs with numerous gates. They successfully created a DPGA with 24 gates, programmable for over 100 billion circuits. Cascading three DPGAs solved quadratic equations, and integrating one with an analog-to-digital converter classified microRNAs. This innovation holds promise for advancing DNA-based computing devices across various applications.

Importance of English editing for non-native speaking authors
English is recognized as the lingua franca for scientific publications. This might be considered to be a deterrent for Non-Native English Speaking (NNES) authors because they find it difficult to assemble their thoughts and prepare their manuscripts for submission to the leading journals. Therefore, many new scientific researches or revelations might never come to light. […]
Are we one step closer to growing human hearts in the lab?
Scientists have made significant progress in recent years in growing human heart tissue in the lab. In 2022, a team of researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School successfully grew a beating human heart in the laboratory using stem cells. The heart was only about the size of a mouse heart, but it […]
Scientific Journals: The Knowledge Storehouse
Scientific journals date back to 1665, when the publication of research results began. A scientific journal publishes scientific data periodically on recent breakthroughs in the field of science. Who benefits from scientific journals? At present, there is widespread acceptance of scientific journals and articles published in them. This magnifies the importance of the researches brought to light […]
