Seeman on the occasion of his 60th birthday This image was created by DADARA Preface Nanotechnologyis slowly and steadily entering moreand moreaspects ofour life. It is becoming a base for developing new materials as well as a base for developing novel methods of computing. As natural computing is concerned with information processing taking place in or inspired by nature, the ideas comingfrombasicinteractionsbetweenatomsandmoleculesnaturallybecome part of these novel ways of computing. Whilenanotechnologyandnanoengineeringhaveflourishedinrecentyears, the roots of DNA nanotechnology go back to the pioneering work of Nadrian (Ned)C.Seemaninthe1980s.Manyoftheoriginaldesignsandconstructions of nanoscale structures from DNA developed in Ned’s lab provided a com- pletely newwayoflookingatthis moleculeoflife.Startingwith thesynthesis of the first immobile Holliday junction, now referred to as J1, through the double and triple cross-over molecules, Ned has shown that DNA is a pow- erful and versatile molecule which is ideal for building complex structures at the nanometer scale. Through the years, Ned has used some of the basic DNA motif struc- tures as ‘tinkertoy’ or ‘lego’ units to build a cube, two-dimensional arrays, and various three-dimensional structures, such as Borromean rings, nanome- chanical devices, nano-walkers (robots), etc. All of them were designed and demonstratedoriginallyinNed’slab,butthenalltheseideasanddesignswere followed up by many other researchersaround the world. Adleman’s seminal paper from 1994 provided a proof of principle that computing at a molecular level, with DNA, is possible. This led to a real explosion of research on molecular computing, and very quickly Ned’s ideas concerning the design and construction of nanoscale structures from DNA had a profound influence on the development of both the theoretical and the experimental foundations of this research area. Ned is a scientist and a chemist in the first place. Although Ned can be considered the founder of the DNA nanoengineering field, he has always considered himself as a chemist who is interested in basic science. Therefore, heisstillveryinterestedinthebasicphysicalpropertiesofDNAandenzymes VIII Preface thatinteractwithnucleicacids.NedhasbeencontinuouslyfundedbyNIHfor almost30yearsandisstillprovidingvaluableinsightsintotheDNAandRNA biophysicalandtopologicalpropertiesaswellasthemechanismofhomologous recombination between two chromosomal DNAs. Ned’s enormous influence extends also to service to the scientific com- munity. Here one has to mention that Ned is the founding president of the International Society for Nanoscale Science, Computation and Engineering (ISNSCE). The respect that Ned enjoys is also manifested through various honors and awards that he has received — among others the Feynman Prize in Nanotechnology and the Tulip Award in DNA Computing.
