Article Synopsis
- Drug discovery faces challenges due to ineffective treatments for evolving diseases and negative side effects from poor selectivity.
- A new platform allows for the rapid identification of DNA oligonucleotides that generate specific biological responses without prior knowledge of the targets involved.
- The oligonucleotide E8 showed promising results by selectively inducing cell death in triple-negative breast cancer cells and significantly inhibiting tumors in animal models, suggesting a tailored approach to drug discovery.
The Monty Hall problem is a decision problem with an answer that is surprisingly counter-intuitive yet provably correct. Here we simulate and prove this decision in a high-throughput DNA sequencing machine, using a simple encoding. All possible scenarios are represented by DNA oligonucleotides, and gameplay decisions are implemented by sequencing these oligonucleotides from specific positions, with a single run simulating more than 12,000,000 independent games.

In this work we explored the concept of robots that are based on more fundamental physical phenomena, such as fluid dynamics, and their potential capabilities. We report a robot made entirely of non-Newtonian fluid, driven by shear strains created by spatial patterns of audio waves.
