“Our goal was to find out whether we could program DNA to assemble into shapes that exhibit custom curvature or twist, with features just a few nanometers wide,” says biophysicist Hendrik Dietz, a professor at the Technische Universitaet Muenchen. Dietz’s collaborators in these experiments were Professor William Shih and Dr. Shawn Douglas of Harvard University. “It worked,” he says, “and we can now build a diversity of three-dimensional nanoscale machine parts, such as round gears or curved tubes or capsules. Assembling those parts into bigger, more complex and functional devices should be possible.”

I have not read the full article, however, this mechanistic view of biology is fast being replaced by research done outside the US which is demonstrating that DNA can be manipulated with light and sound, and intention. Google Torsion Waves or visit http://www.phoeneixregenetics.org, or search David Wilcock’s free ebooks at http://www.divinecosmos.com. In the context of social and economic reform, this could be a huge step forward as gifted and trained intuitives can do the work, at a distance, without technology or cost.
Nano tech and molecular biology hold the potential to make all sorts of scarcity: food, energy etc, a thing of the past. Sooner or later this tech will be subverted for military purposes, of course.
