Forget Python and Java. Ruby? Get outta here. If you’re gonna learn to write code, you better make it useful—so why not one that builds DNA when you run it?
A team of researchers from the University of Washington has developed a programming language that allows them to code a set of instructions to build DNA molecules. The work builds on the concept of chemical reaction networks—a language of equations that describes how mixtures of chemicals behave—to create a language which allows them to program and direct the movement of tailor-made molecules.
