Genetic material as a stable storage medium "Biohackers" TV series stored on DNA The first episode of the newly released series "Biohackers" was stored in the form of synthetic DNA. This was made possible by the research of Prof. Reinhard Heckel of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and his colleague Prof. Robert Grass of ETH Zürich. They have developed a method that permits the stable storage of large quantities of data on DNA for over 1000 years. Prof. Heckel, Biohackers is about a medical student seeking revenge on a professor with a dark past - and the manipulation of DNA with biotechnology tools. You were commissioned to store the series on DNA. How does that work? First, I should mention that what we're talking about artificially generated - in other words, synthetic - DNA. DNA consists of four building blocks: the nucleotides adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C).
