Code breaking and the Human Genome Project

The Open Targets Blog

Since the operations at ‘Station X’ became declassified, the wartime work at Bletchley Park including notable individuals such as Alan Turing has become well known in popular films and books. Only later were the first computers established to automate intelligence gathering.

in physics at Princeton University, he had a remarkable idea: What if it were possible to build a circuit out of DNA, rather than electronics, and use it to “program” a living cell? So many kinds of people have contributed to biology in different ways. In 1997, as Michael Elowitz was studying for a Ph.D.

They’ve just finished sequencing the patient’s genome, but they don’t have “DNA sorting” software. And that’s how I learned that there are published books that contain entire chromosome sequences. A real book that contains the full sequence of human chromosome 21.
