Astumian Comments in Molecular Machines Article

UMaine physics professor Raymond Dean Astumian was interviewed for an article in the April 2 issue of Chemical & Engineering News about misunderstandings about the fundamental physics behind design, operation and characterization of molecular machines. This topic is part of the subject of an article, “Can artificial molecular machines deliver on their promise?” that Astumian co-authored with colleagues from Northwestern University, the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology and Poland’s Adam Mickiewicz University. The article was featured on the cover of the first issue of Chemical Society Reviews for this year.
