This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23th International Conference on DNA
Computing and Molecular Programming DNA 23 held Austin TX USA in September 2017. The 16
full papers presented were carefully selected from 23 submissions. Research in DNA computing
aims to draw together mathematics computerscience physics chemistry biology and
nanotechnology to address the analysis design and synthesis of information-based molecular
systems. The papers address all areas related to biomolecular computing such as: algorithms and
models for computation with biomolecular systems computational processes in vitro and in vivo
molecular motors and molecular robotics studies of fault-tolerance and error correction
software tools for analysis simulation and design synthetic biology and in vitro evolution
applications in engineering physics chemistry biology and medicine.
