Panellists: Alexis Courbet, Erik Benson, Stephane Redon, Dean Thomas. Recorded at Vision Weekend France.

Key Highlights

The panel discusses molecular nanotechnology and the potential for compact machines to replace industrial facilities.
They discuss advances in the field, which include protein design, protein folding, and dynamic structures that respond to stimuli.
It is noted how molecular machines can automate the synthesis of other machines, similar to biology – computational protein design allows for the creation of new machines from scratch.
The panel concluded by highlighting the potential for molecular nanotechnology to bridge the gap between organic chemistry and automation.

About Foresight Institute

Foresight Institute is a research organization and non-profit that supports the beneficial development of high-impact technologies. Since our founding in 1987 on a vision of guiding powerful technologies, we have continued to evolve into a many-armed organization that focuses on several fields of science and technology that are too ambitious for legacy institutions to support.
