A Retro-Cascorder device records a cell’s genetic activity in DNA for days at a time

If you want to keep track of someone’s activities for a day, contact them every 10 minutes and inquire what they are up to. It would be simpler, though, to equip them with a journal in which to record their own acts.

Study highlights the history of ancient DNA technology development

Ancient DNA (aDNA) technology has been used for the past ten years by researchers working under the direction of FU Qiaomei at the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology (IVPP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) to learn more about the history of ancient human populations, particularly those in East Asia.
