This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 24th International Conference on DNA
Computing and Molecular Programming DNA 24 held in Jinan China in October 2018. The 12 full
papers presented were carefully selected from 14 submissions. Research in DNA computing aims to
draw together mathematics computer science physics chemistry biology and nanotechnology to
address the analysis design and synthesis of information-based molecular systems. The papers
were sought in all areas related to biomolecular computing including: algorithms and models
for computation on biomolecular systems computational processes in vitro and in vivo
molecular switches gates devices and circuits molecular folding and self-assembly of
nanostructures analysis and theoretical models of laboratory techniques molecular motors and
molecular robotics information storage studies of fault tolerance and error correction
software tools for analysis simulation and design synthetic biology and in vitro evolution
and applications in engineering physics chemistry biology and medicine.
