About
Jean-Pierre Sauvage is a French chemist and recipient of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his pioneering work on molecular machines. A professor at the University of Strasbourg, his research on mechanically interlocked molecules—such as catenanes and rotaxanes—opened a new field at the interface of chemistry, nanotechnology, and molecular engineering. His work has profoundly influenced the way chemists design and control molecular motion.
