Paul Rothemund Biography

Paul Rothemund shared both categories of the 2006 Feynman Prize in Nanotechnology with Erik Winfree for their work in creating DNA nanotubes algorithmic molecular self-assembly of DNA tile structures and their theoretical work on DNA computing. Rothemund is also a 2007 recipient of the MacArthur Fellowship. He attained his Ph.D. from the University of Southern California in 2001. Paul Rothemund won a MacArthur grant for a fairly mystifying study area: folding DNA. His work combines the study of self-assembly (watch the TEDTalks from Neil Gershenfeld and Saul Griffith for more on this) with the research being done in DNA nanotechnology -- and points the way toward self-assembling devices at microscale making computer memory for instance smaller faster and maybe even cheaper.
