    The aim of this paper is to outline and discuss novel and promising findings focusing on (i) the synthesis of fluorescent silver nanoclusters (NCs) using DNA as the stabilizing scaffolds, (ii) the origins of fluorescence and (iii) recent applications in biosensing and imaging. By reviewing the recent synthesis methods and applications of DNA-based silver NCs, we hope to demonstrate that these novel nanolights have the potential to be successful in biomedicine beyond their typically envisioned purposes.
