The same standard that revolutionised digital photography is now laying the foundation for molecular data storage. The JPEG DNA initiative is developing an international standard for storing image data on synthetic DNA, set to be published in 2026.

DNA will never go obsolete.
We’ll always know how to read DNA. Because it’s in our blood, literally.

🎙️ In EP02 of Dive into Deeptech | MoSS Edition, we sit down with two of the sharpest minds in DNA data storage:
🔹 Prof. Zohar Yakhini (Reichman University & Technion - Israel Institute of Technology)
🔹 Prof. Eitan Yaakobi (DNA Storage Lab @ Technion)
In this episode, we talk about:
- What the future of DNA-based storage systems might look like
- Why composite DNA letters could massively boost information density
- The challenges: insertions, deletions, and the codes that can’t (yet) fix them
- What it takes to make DNA readable decades or centuries from now
- Building collaborative tools to analyse synthesis error profiles
- How academia and industry must work together before the tech matures. and more!
If you’re building or thinking in this space, this one’s dense, brilliant packed with full of insight.
