The Research Center for Functional Molecular Systems presents the Netherlands Awards for Supramolecular Chemistry 2023, which recognize outstanding scientists in the field of supramolecular chemistry.
The 2023 Netherlands Supramolecular Chemistry Award is awarded to Professor Joanna Aizenberg (Harvard University). She is a pioneer in the field of bio-inspired materials science and engineering — a branch of science that uses biological principles as guides in developing advanced, adaptive materials and devices. Her work focuses on understanding the unique architectural principles found in nature that enable living organisms to assemble themselves into structures with high functionality. Next to nanostructured materials, she inspires the world with many novel complex materials emerging from simple concepts.
Joanna Aizenberg is the Amy Smith Berylson Professor of Materials Science at Harvard’s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, the co-director of the Kavli Institute for Bionano Science and Technology and a core faculty member of the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering.
