The slogan ‘small is beautiful’ is perfectly suited to the field of biology. The human body is composed of about five thousand billion cells, each of which functions by virtue of a whole range of nanoscale phenomena and nanomachines.
The perfect harmony of the information systems and molecular devices at work in our cells is today a fertile source of inspiration for scientists engaged in the development of nanotechnology and nanomaterials.
