Molecular gastronomy is not bad... but without sound, basic culinary technique, it is useless. ↗

It now seems certain that the amino acid sequence of any protein is determined by the sequence of bases in some region of a particular nucleic acid molecule. ↗

I had been impressed by the fact that biological systems were based on molecular machines and that we were learning to design and build these sorts of things. ↗

The really big difference is that what you make with a molecular machine can be completely precise, down to the tiniest degree of detail that can exist in the world. ↗

Today we have big, crude instruments guided by intelligent surgeons, and we have little, stupid molecules of drugs that get dumped into the body, diffuse around and interfere with things as best they can. At present, medicine is unable to heal anything. ↗

I really think that effective acting has to do literally with the movement of molecules. ↗

We can grow crops less expensively because molecular manufacturing technology is inherently low cost. ↗

Disease and ill health are caused largely by damage at the molecular and cellular level, yet today's surgical tools are too large to deal with that kind of problem. ↗

A molecular manufacturing technology will let us build molecular surgical tools, and those tools will, for the first time, let us directly address the problems at the very root level. ↗
