Plastic Bunny 3D Printed From Its Own DNA

The video explores the innovative use of DNA as a storage medium, highlighting a project where digital data is encoded into DNA molecules and embedded into 3D printed objects. This method allows for vast amounts of data to be stored in small spaces and in various shapes. The research team demonstrated this by creating a 3D printed Bunny that contains its own blueprints in DNA form. The video also discusses potential applications, such as embedding medical records in implants and creating self-replicating machines. Additionally, a new monthly birth control pill is introduced, which aims to improve adherence by releasing hormones over time.
