Excuse me, I need to check my DNA on my cell phone

I’m not certain whether we are at the point where everything is visible on a genetic test, but in case you don’t know, those DNA tests are pretty complex. Fortunately, some scientists at Berkeley have created a technique that uses something called electrostatic tech.

All a user has to do is put their DNA sample on a microarray surface. Then these negatively charged things called microspheres are spread across the surface, which can push themselves into clumps as they move away from the like-charged DNA and RNA areas.

These clumps are apparently easy to see, so easy that they can be recorded by an ordinary cell phone camera.
