News that brings hope to those suffering diseases like: Hepatitis C and Thalassaemia. DNA is known for carrying genetic information. With new studies led by K N Ganesh, in the future, DNA may be able to cure diseases such as the ones just told to you. Ganesh is a recognized man in the world of chemical studies of DNA, PNA; being awarded with the TWAS. He is furthering his study in the intricacies of DNA with hopes that one day it will be used for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. He is the leader of a new field called ‘Chemical Biology’. He is using the DNA as templates, for making circuits, by using nano technology; which will be used as tiny sensors. In the simplest terms of what this man is trying to do is: ‘To inhibit the production of harmful disease causing proteins from RNA (ribonucleic acids) by using PNA (peptide nucleic acids)’.
