Professor at Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics and iNANO Jørgen Kjems is receiving the 2018 Novo Nordisk Prize for his pioneering interdisciplinary studies of how RNA, the biological cousin of DNA, plays a key role in regulating cells and has enormous future potential in treating disease.

A new Danish-Swedish research alliance wants to advance understanding of how biological molecules look and behave. With support from the Novo Nordisk Foundation and the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, scientists at four universities in Denmark and Sweden will join forces to create a Nordic network in cryo-electron microscopy, whose developers were awarded the 2017 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

Professor Kurt V. Gothelf has received DKK 60 million from the Novo Nordisk Foundation Challenge Programme to establish the Center for Multifunctional Biomolecular Drug Design (CEMBID) at the Interdisciplinary Nanoscience Center (iNANO) at Aarhus University.

The research group of Assoc. Prof. Ebbe S. Andersen has recently published a paper entitled "Control of enzyme reactions by a reconfigurable DNA nanovault".

Researchers from the groups of Flemming Besenbacher and Nina Lock at the Interdisciplinary Nanoscience Center (iNANO) at Aarhus University and Synfuels China Technology Co. Ltd. demonstrate the commercial potential of solar driven N-N coupling reactions in a new study published in Nature Communications.
