Chapter 310: Major Projects

Bioinformatics storage technology is only the beginning, and biocomputer technology will be further developed in the future.

Through the design guide and manual, Zhou Xiao also knows that there are many difficulties in this technology.

The first one is the raw materials.

DNA is indeed a carrier of information, but what kind of material is this carrier, and it is impossible to raise an animal to store its DNA.

The DNA strand must be absolutely stable, with little chance of mutation, and a large enough amount of data to be stored.

The design guide uses the DNA of the colony, and the colony is most likely a branch product of the green filamentus!

The second is the problem of storing and reading information.

The difficulty is how to store text, images, applications, and other information in biological memory.

Zhou Xiao just took a look at it, and felt that the content was quite floating, which absolutely needed to convene experts from the Origin Group and even the whole country to study the design guidelines.

The third point is the issue of application.

Bio-storage technology is just the beginning, and biocomputers are the first goal of this technology.

In other words, even if the biological information storage technology is developed, the object facing it is the current binary semiconductor computer, and the platform used is likely to be a binary semiconductor computer, not a biological computer.

How to use the two things together is more testing for the laboratory.

Zhou Xiao's head is very big, and the task is really getting more and more difficult.

Bioinformatics storage technology involves not only biology, computer science, electronics, but also mathematics, linguistics and so on.

Zhou Xiao didn't even dare to set a deadline for herself to complete the task.

It is conceivable that if the Source Group really developed biometric storage, the first to go bankrupt would be Samsung, Kingston, Toshiba, Micron and other companies or the company's storage department.

And it is conceivable that if this technology is developed, the data storage limit can basically be broken, the source code company can launch unlimited cloud storage technology, and mobile phones can also use large storage components.

The impact of bioinformatics storage technology on the entire human information age and biotechnology is still unpredictable, but it is conceivable that this will definitely subvert countless industries!

Zhou Xiao stayed up all night, went through the entire design guide, and wrote down some of the key points.

He decided to do something very important - to set up a professional cross-disciplinary R&D department!

This matter must be led by Zhou Xiao himself, but Mo Li, Ma Xin and others must also participate, and even dig talents with high salaries when necessary.

Zhou Xiao hurriedly made a call to Mo Li.

"Come to my office."

Mo Li, who had arrived in Hai Province and was in Lexian County to learn about the construction of a high-density energy block production workshop, was a little dizzy.

She didn't know if she was dreaming or her boss was dreaming.

Aren't you in Hai Province? How do you get yourself to your boss's office?

"Boss! I'm in Le County now! There are no planes here, and even if you rush to the airport now, you won't be able to come back tomorrow. ”

Mo Li said very helplessly, and also felt that he was so pitiful, he worked hard to work, Zhou Xiao didn't know that he came out to work, it was really in vain.

Zhou Xiao then remembered that he had indeed stayed up all night, and he was a little dizzy.

Mo Li's trip to Lexian was arranged by himself.

Zhou Xiao asked, "Who went with you?" ”

"Zhang Zhi'an."

Zhang Zhi'an is also a talent cultivated in the laboratory, and he can be regarded as Mo Li's right-hand man.

However, because he is relatively young, he is not too high in the microbiology laboratory of the Origin Group, so he has never been in charge.

Zhou Xiao said: "Okay, give you three days, you give all the work in your hand to Zhang Zhi'an, and then come back." I appointed Zhang Zhi'an as the person in charge of the Lexian project and the general manager of the Lexian branch of the company. ”

"What's so urgent?" Mo Li was a little puzzled.

Is there anything more important now than building a high-density energy fast project?

"It's not convenient to say on the phone, but it's very important." Zhou Xiao hung up the phone.

The establishment of key joint laboratories is, of course, much more important than the production of energy blocks.

After all, the technology for producing high-density energy blocks is very mature, and large-scale production is a matter of time.

Besides, Zhang Zhian has been following Mo Li for so long, and he should be mature enough to take charge on his own.

Mo Li had to start the handover work according to Zhou Xiao's instructions.

Zhang Zhian was still a little nervous and said, "Sister, can I do it here alone?" ”

Mo Li patted Zhang Zhi'an on the shoulder and said: "All the technologies are ready-made, you came out of the group's laboratory, followed me for so long, and did so many projects, I believe there will be no problem in terms of technology." ”

"But as the general manager of a company, it is not enough to know technology, the most important thing is to be sophisticated."

Most of the people trained in the laboratory are the key talents of the origin group.

According to Zhou Xiao's plan, it will take some time for Zhang Zhian and others to take charge alone.

However, the plan could not catch up with the changes, and the establishment of a joint laboratory would require the vigorous human resources of the Origin Group, and Zhang Zhian and others could only grow in advance.

Mo Li met Zhou Xiao in the conference room.

Zhou Xiao first revealed a bottom to Mo Li.

"You're talking about DNA molecular storage information technology?" Mo Li was a little surprised and said: "This technology is indeed the most cutting-edge interdisciplinary discipline in the biomolecular field, and the most advanced technology is in the hands of the people of the United States." ”

"Harvard University has encoded movies and images into living cells. ”

"Yes!" "When they put the synthetic DNA transformed from the movie into E. coli cells by disguising it as viral DNA, the E. coli DNA molecule stores it," Zhou said. ”

"The stored movie is in 36×26 pixel GIF format, which is very small."

Zhou Xiao said: "This is the direction of the future development of molecular biology, and it is also the best way for us to bypass the barriers of Western semiconductor technology. ”

Zhou Xiao would not suddenly take out the design guide for Mo Li to see, it would be too abrupt and exaggerated.

Instead, according to some ideas in the design guide, Mo Li will be guided to the relevant technology.

Zhou Xiao's role is to lead the experimental team step by step to experiment according to the final goal, and achieve success.

It's similar to building a tall building, starting with the foundation.

Zhou Xiao said: "At present, our laboratory has the conditions and ability to overcome this technology. The core key of storage technology is the combination of four kinds of purines......"

After a day of talks, Mo Li also felt that the Origin Group's experiment had the ability to charge towards this high point.
