Huygens Colloquium: Daniela Wilson

Monday 3 November 2025, 12:30 pm - 1:15 pm
Synthetic engines of life. From molecules to motion: designing the medicine of tomorrow

How can we create motion from molecules? In this colloquium, Daniela Wilson will explore the design of synthetic motile systems, from molecular machines to artificial organelles, that mimic life-like behaviour. By integrating supramolecular chemistry, nanotechnology, and polymer science, these systems open new avenues for next-generation therapeutics, including targeted drug delivery and biofilm disruption. Attendees will gain insight into how motion at the nanoscale can be harnessed to tackle some of the most pressing biomedical challenges.

Huygens Colloquia

In the Faculty of Science, a great diversity of exciting research is going on. The Huygens Colloquia are a colloquium series by Faculty of Science employees for all faculty employees and students. Every month, a colleague will discuss their science and their latest results in an accessible way to a wider audience. Access is free and no registration is needed.
