NanoDecoder

NanoDecoder is a start-up project from EPFL working on encoding digital information in synthetic heteropolymers with the benefits of ultra-high density, long-term storage (a few hundred years), and very low energy consumption. Alongside, we developed a nanopore-based strategy for these polymers’ decoding. The applications for such a technology range from long term data-archiving, ultrahigh density data storage, cybersecurity, as well as anti-counterfeiting systems and molecular cryptography.
