Press Release: GBR Research
Research Company Makes International Breakthrough
Auckland, Tuesday 17 October, 2006: Scientists and Engineers from a private New Zealand research company have scored an international breakthrough by developing the ability to store and execute computer programmes within a microscopic DNA Pharmaceutical crystal .
The breakthrough by physicist, Graemme Brown of GBR Research Ltd, is something the international scientific community has ploughed many millions of dollars into over the last decade without result, but which now has staggering implications both in the field of computing technology, and in that of health science and science generally.
Final Clinical Validations are to provide independent certification to its performance and applications are now underway at a leading New Zealand Research University.
Once clinical validations are complete, the research company will move quickly to establish pilot production runs of a DNA Pharmaceutical Tablet which is both digestible and executable within a living biological system .
Chief physicist for GBR Research Ltd, Mr Graemme Brown says that an entirely new form of Data Codon has been produced in this breakthrough which enables an ordinary laptop computer to generate data in a form that can be synthetically encoded into a DNA Tablet and perform high speed computing functions at a molecular~switch level, once digested or inserted into the living biological system.
He says a huge advantage of the discovery is that ‘DNA computing’ can be used both with existing computing technology but more particularly open up the scientific frontier for revolutionary new Bio-technology and bio-computing capability, the implications of which are staggering.
The added bonus of the development he says, is that it can be used both in
conjunction with existing systems as well as providing the impetus for revolutionary new bio-technology capability.
A single DNA molecule contains up to 100 billion functions and operating instructions necessary for building a human body.
When the new DNA Tablet’s ability to encode and decode data to a DNA molecule is combined with the molecular potential processing capacity , it produces the ability to store unprecedented libraries of data , as well as process volumes of computing programs within an organic molecule.
The technology has been developed for Advanced Creative Technologies Ltd, and has employed external biomedical specialist Mr Juan Lopera Alvarez and software engineering specialist Mr Richard Brown
Current leading edge silicon chip manufacturers predict they will have single binary logic gates reduced to 18 nanometers by the end of the decade.
This company’s technology produces the potential for millions of coding instructions or logic gates to be contained within a DNA crystal only 20 nanometers in size. This would effectively create ‘Bio-computers’ with capacities and processing power exponentially greater than that presently achieved by current silicon technologies.
Some industry commentators predict the merging of Information Technology and Genomics will create the hottest technology sector for the 21st century combining the computing hardware, software and networking sectors with those of pharmaceutical and chemical engineering, biotechnology and life sciences.
A recent market analysis report by IDC states that in the Life Science sector alone, spending on information technology will reach US$ 38 billion by 2006.
The company predicts the potential revenue generated from the savings in processing time and capacity, research, and the development of new products and technologies that will arise from this discovery are set to be in the billions of dollars.
Ehhhh wtf ? :O

Science always love to wag its dick around saying its going to revolutionise the world.

Er I think we can agree science has pretty much revolutionised the world.

wow!! sounds as a scfi hollywood movie!!! what's gonna come next? a computer with a mini jail as dispiator, so the living one that do polygons, vertex and some more complex calculations in order we can play games such as The Elder Scrolls V, more fluid; don't ecape at nite????
aspirins with memory shells in it, so we don't have to study to know about something?
huge step!!
i bet this century will be the century of true Biogenetics, combined with electronics, as the XX century was revolutioned by nuclear power.
Biogenetics, sounds more friendly to me than nuclear power. We have to wait and see....

I read it, but can someone please tell me...
What will this actually DO?

actually, the things we use in daily life aren't the result much of science but rather from people who find something amazing accidentally.
However, my comments was not on science itself but for scientific projects like this, that almost promise a revolution, but that most of the time go nowwhere.

Rubbish. Even cooking your dinner can be attributed to a type of science. Of course it's how you define scince as a word.

Then we simply disagree on the spectrum of science.

Don't talk such shit please. You think TV's, mobile phones, modern medicine, computers, etc; were just found, intact. No they were developed through scientific method.
You can fuck off now.

Many revolutionary discoveries like that don't change our world instantly. Many times they sit useless for many years, as people don't know how to apply them to our daily routines. With time somebody finds a perfect use for such technology, but by then we don't think of it as a big breakthrough.

a bird with only one wing .. cannot fly
scientific breakthroughs like this usually yield little obvious results .. because corporations are very secretive .. its only when we are presented with pets that double as home computers will we notice any effects .. & that most lightly will be reserved for a select few who can pay .. more than lightly this kind of tech .. will be applied to military robotics .. something that is bordering on applesead already .. but as you may have imagined these things are not common knowledge because surprise is a very valuable tool in the marketplace as well as the battle field .
& we all know that science today is utterly dependant on funding .. & funding that really gets results isnt usually broadcasted .. if it was, there would be competition .. competition is not acceptable to those who wish to dominate ..
This just makes everything from medication, surgery to solders implants that much more disturbing .. the line of synthetic | organic has become that much thinner ..

No, you stop talking shit. We all know that the mobile phone was accidentally invented when some guy was trying to fix his malfunctioning waffle toaster. Jesus, you people can be so ignorant.

Awe funding, the achilles heel of science.

& money & locks usually go hand in hand .. breakthroughs are good for science labs & science .. the work done on the breakthroughs is usually done under wraps because secrecy if the best protection against mistakes & others doing it better ..

Sorry about that, flew off the handle a bit. If you can't tell i'm a scientist so when someone tells me what i've devoted my adult life to is based on a few people 'getting lucky' it's kind of annoying.
Chinup, not all research is private, there are plenty of public endeavours which have great potential and have already yielded significant results. Of course profit is a common motivator but where is it not.
The world isn't as cloak and dagger as you seem to want it to be.

If it isn't too personal do you mind if I ask what area of science.
