This paper was very interesting. I can't speak to the theoretical treatment the paper attempted at, as it seems to be highly glossed over and would require a lot of study on the details of the theory. Maybe if I'm bored in the next few weeks I will have a go at understanding the theory part of it more completely (put that physics degree to good use ). The results of replicating the DNA, however, I find very intriguing (assuming no contamination, etc). Hopefully these researchers can put out a more complete paper in the future that would be ready for proper peer review. Just the DNA replication through the EM transfer of information itself is an amazing discovering, and it deserves a more rigorous treatment.
