Genome scientist Dr. Jay Shendure talking with a colleague in his lab at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. He is leading an effort to develop technologies like ENGRAM and DNA Typewriter that use symbolic barcodes to record cell biology information onto genomes. This information tracks biological events and states inside living cells and aims to make cells their own historians.
