| Research Abstract |
DNA computing has three issues to lead to breakthrough ; (a)achievement of a general purpose framework, (b)improvement of experimentally operational protocols, and (c)killer applications. The purpose of this research is to solve these issues by using droplet micro-fluidic devices ; (a)realizes a general purpose computational scheme ‘Aqueous computing', (b)automates its experimental protocols, and (c)proposes an algorithm for molecular reinforcement learning as a candidate of killer applications. As the result of research, we achieved to realize a micro-fluidic device to write PNAs replacing into DNA molecular memory by high efficiency, and also proposed an algorithm for a part of molecular reinforcement learning with LAMP method.
