Researchers at MIT and Scripps have reported that a DNA-based virus-like particle vaccine has generated markedly higher ...

The use of DNA scaffolds could mark a turning point in HIV vaccine design. Scientists at Scripps Research and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a new vaccine platform based ...

DNA origami sounds like science fiction, but for HIV vaccine researchers it is becoming a practical design tool. By folding strands of DNA into tiny three-dimensional scaffolds, scientists can arrange ...

A new vaccine design uses folded DNA to steer the immune system toward producing the rare immune cells needed to make protective antibodies against HIV.

Scientists are exploring how DNA’s physical structure can store vast amounts of data and encode secure information.

A DNA scaffold that carries HIV vaccine proteins into the body sharpens the immune response against the virus.

Engineered DNA can store massive amounts of data while also encrypting it, opening the door to ultra-secure, long-term digital storage.

Since the dawn of the computer age, researchers have wrestled with two persistent challenges: how to store ever-increasing ...
