Travelling low- and middle-income countries in her twenties made Molly M. Stevens realise how completely unequal the world is in access to resources and healthcare. It made her transform her passion for science into something that could make a difference in people’s lives. By designing nanomaterials to interact with biology, Molly M. Stevens and her team are developing advanced drug delivery systems, ultrasensitive biosensing and tissue engineering scaffolds to recreate eyes, bones and heart. For her groundbreaking research venture into the future of medicine, she is receiving the 2023 Novo Nordisk Prize.
