Caltech - Oct 22, 2013 - DNA molecules as a computing substrate to solve a hard math problem
DNA Computing, according to Wikipedia, is a form of computing invented to solve hard math and computational problems such as Hamiltonian path problem, NP-hard and etc.
It premises on the basis that DNA molecular structures are capable to serve as the computing basis as alternative to silicon-based circuits.
Some of the different bases include DNAzymes, deoxyoligonucleotides, enzymes, DNA tiling, and polymerase chain reaction.
In this case study, Caltech faculty member Lulu Qian, assistant professor of bioengineering constructed a DNA neural network that can perform simple associative memory functions—much like a network of neurons in the brain.
