 Sci-Fi / Cyberpunk concept.

It’s believed that DNA could be used to store data due to its clever memory correction and small size.

Have a Cyberpunk book where data from the implants is stored in the DNA of the user, maybe? I don’t know, just thought about it and don’t know if it’s a thing yet.

 it's possible, first thing that comes to mind tho is how horribly that can go wrong

the game >OBSERVER_ had the "nanophage" in its setting, which was essentially a software glitch that could spread over the internet and infected nanites that were used to interface between implants and human tissue and was essentially the worst shit ever 
 Johnny Mnemonic was a film about this but it wasn't DNA it was John Wick's brain
