DNA Data Storage continues to make progress on multiple fronts. Here’s what’s happening in the industry right now.
Press Release: DNA Data Storage Alliance Announces New Board Members
The DNA Data Storage Alliance is excited to announce an expansion of its governing board by welcoming Biomemory, Entegris, and Imagene to join current Board members Catalog, Quantum, Twist Bioscience, and Western Digital.
Article: Preparing for the DNA Computation Paradigm Shift
Tech Radar discusses how DNA-based data storage and computation represent a break from the old framework and show a scalable, sustainable path forward for data storage.
Article: Shrinking the Environmental Footprint of Digital Data Storage with DNA
DNA data storage poses an eco-friendly mechanism for growing data needs. This is a fantastic article by SynBioBeta, highlighting alliance members Twist Bioscience and Biomemory.
White Paper: High-throughput DNA Synthesis for Data Storage
This review outlines the workflow of DNA data storage and the basic methods of DNA synthesis, featuring alliance member Twist Bioscience. It concludes with the current status of DNA storage and new opportunities for future development in the field.
Article: IEEE Roadmap Outlines Development of Digital Storage Technology
With increasing digital storage demand, not only must existing storage technologies continue to innovate, but there is a need for emerging storage technologies to enhance the storage hierarchy. This year, the IEEE included a chapter on DNA storage in their mass storage roadmap update.
Article: First DNA Data Storage Specification Released: First Step Towards Commercialization
Sector Zero and Sector One are now publicly available and define a recommended method for storing basic vendor and CODEC information within a DNA data archive, allowing companies working in the space to adopt and implement!

Don’t miss this great Puzzle X talk on DNA data storage featuring DNA Data Storage Alliance co-chair, Esther Singer.
News: CATALOG Named a World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer
Congratulations to Catalog Technologies, Inc. who has been named a distinguished Technology Pioneer within the World Economic Forum's Innovator Communities! 100 companies are selected annually as Technology Pioneers and consist of start-ups from around the world developing and deploying new technologies and innovations.
News: DNA Stability Evaluation Specification Available for Public Review The genetic code of mammals has been successfully recovered from fossil DNA over 2 million years old. However, when DNA is used to encode digital data stored in manufactured DNA Containment Systems (DCS) from different vendors, each offering different cost/benefit tradeoffs and durability properties, there is a need to compare the durability claims from these vendors. A new standard from the DNA Data Storage Alliance, Data Stability Evaluation Method for DNA Data Storage Containment Systems, aims to enable an “apples-to-apples” comparison of DCS durability claims. A pre-release version of the standard is available for review and comment on the SNIA Technical Work for Public Review page.
