Global Biological Computers Market Overview
Biological Computers Market Size was valued at USD 3.8 Billion in 2023. The Global Biological Computers industry is projected to grow from USD 4.3 Billion in 2024 to USD 7.8 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.22% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).
Biological computers, also known as DNA computers, are microcomputers designed for their use in the field of medicine. This implantable device can be used for various functions such as monitoring the activities of the body or inducing therapeutic effects. Hardware, software, input, and output are the four major components of a biological computer. These components are made of DNA, RNA and proteins. Biological computers are able to perform mathematical calculations that enable the researcher to construct a system of biosensors. This system of biosensors can detect or target specific types of cells such as cancer cells in the patient’s body.
Rising prevalence of cancer, and increasing demand for DNA or gene chips are some of the major factors driving the growth of biological computers market across the globe. Furthermore, increasing healthcare expenditure and overall growth of the healthcare industry also influence the market growth. Splendid research in the field of oncology also boosts the market.
As per the report of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2014, over 14.1 million of new cancer cases were registered worldwide.
