Biosteganography
From ResearchID.org
Biosteganography is the search for hidden codes within bioinformational components of living organisms. This research is concentrated mostly on information stored in nucleic acids.
William Dembski asked, "What if organisms instantiate designs that have no functional significance but that nonetheless give biological investigators insight into functional aspects of organisms? Such second-order designs would serve essentially as an 'operating manual,' of no use to the organism as such but of use to scientists investigating the organism."[1] Such a discovery would be strong evidence for the design inference.
- Geron Telomerase Cell Line - Biotech firms, like the Geron Corporation, are utilizing something like a "research manual" quality of DNA that Dembski speaks of.
