"The rapid improvement in DNA sequencing has sparked a big data revolution in genomic sciences, which has in turn led to a proliferation of bioinformatics tools. To date, these tools have encountered little adversarial pressure. This paper evaluates the robustness of such tools if (or when ) adversarial attacks manifest. We demonstrate, for the first time, the synthesis of DNA which - when sequenced and processed - gives an at- tacker arbitrary remote code execution. To study the feasibility of creating and synthesizing a DNA-based exploit, we performed our attack on a modified down- stream sequencing utility with a deliberately introduced vulnerability. "

Just imagine, you are sitting on a sunny beach, contentedly letting the warm sand trickle through your fingers. Millions of sand grains. What you probably can't imagine: at the same time, billions upon billions of bacteria are also trickling through your fingers.

This means that an individual grain of sand can have twice as many residents as, say, the city of Fairbanks, Alaska!

Sie kommen in der Fachzeitschrift Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences zu dem Schluss, dass die "prosoziale Reputation" nicht einfach dadurch zustande kommt, dass man viel Gutes tut, sondern dass man es möglichst vielen antut."
