DNA data preserved in amber-like polymer by MIT scientists — Jurassic Park inspires new long-term ‘T-REX’ preservation method

New DNA storage method based on Jurassic Park stores DNA in an amber-like polymer. Unlike previous styles which freeze DNA or embed it in silica, the amber method is easy to embed and extract, and is highly scalable.
