Author Information

Gwénaël Rapenne obtained his PhD in 1998 from Louis Pasteur University of Strasbourg under the supervision of Dr Jean-Pierre Sauvage and Dr Christiane Dietrich-Buchecker (molecular and supramolecular chemistry). After spending one year as Lavoisier postdoctoral fellow working on Fullerenes with Prof. François Diederich at ETH Zürich (Switzerland), he joined the NanoSciences Group at CEMES (CNRS). He is now full professor at the University Paul Sabatier of Toulouse. He is the author of more than 50 publications  (h=23). His research focuses on the design and synthesis of molecular machines (nanovehicles, motors, gears …) for their study and manipulation at the single molecular scale. Christian Joachim is CNRS Director of Research, Nanosciences group at CEMES/CNRS and adjunct Professor of Quantum Physics at Sup’Aero (ISAE) Toulouse. In Singapore, he is A*STAR VIP at IMRE on atom technology and head of the WPI MANA-NIMS satellite in Toulouse. He coordinated European projects like ""Bottom-up Nanomachines"" and “Pico-Inside”. He is currently coordinating the large European integrated project AtMol (2011-2014) to build the first ever molecular chip. He is the author of more than 200 scientific publications (h=49) and has presented over 300 invited talks on electron transfer through a molecule, STM and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) image calculations, tunnel transport through a molecule, molecular devices, nanolithography and single molecule machines. His book: “Nanosciences, the invisible revolution” (World Scientific, 2009) is presenting the history of Nanosciences and its political drawbacks to a general public.
