While DNA's perpetual role in biology and life science is well documented, its burgeoning digital applications are beginning to garner significant interest. As the development of novel technologies requires continuous research, product development, startup creation, and financing, this work provides an overview of each respective area and highlights current trends, challenges, and opportunities. These are supported by numerous interviews with key opinion leaders from across academia, government agencies and the commercial sector, as well as investment data analysis. Our findings illustrate the societal and economic need for technological innovation and disruption in data storage, paving the way for nature's own time-tested, advantageous, and unrivaled solution. We anticipate a significant increase in available investment capital and continuous scientific progress, creating a ripe environment on which DNA data storage-enabling startups can capitalize to bring DNA data storage into daily life.
虽然 DNA 在生物学和生命科学中的永久作用已被充分记录，但它在数字领域的新兴应用开始引起人们的极大兴趣。由于新型技术的发展需要持续的研究、产品开发、初创企业的创建和融资，因此这项工作概述了每个领域，并强调了当前的趋势、挑战和机遇。这些都得到了来自学术界、政府机构和商业部门的众多主要意见领袖的采访以及投资数据分析的支持。我们的研究结果说明了社会和经济对数据存储技术创新和颠覆的需求，为自然自身经过时间考验的、有利的和无与伦比的解决方案铺平了道路。我们预计可用投资资本将大幅增加，科学将不断取得进步，从而为 DNA 数据存储初创企业创造一个有利可图的环境，使 DNA 数据存储进入日常生活。
