The 166th Faraday Discussion meeting on the Self-Assembly of Biopolymers offered intriguing and new insights into a research eld which is of fundamental importance to life. Indeed, one could argue that all life on Earth depends on the correct assembly, arrangement and disassembly of polymers. However, research in this area extends not only into the understanding the self-assembly processes of natural polymers but also into controlling the formation of structures at multiple length-scales. It was a recurrent theme of the meeting that scientists in the eld are actively seeking to exploit self-assembly behaviour to generate materials and functions well beyond those currently seen in biology. Practical applications of self-assembled materials were also a major feature of this Faraday Discussion, with examples shown of drug delivery systems, supports for tissue growth, bacterial cell factories and signalling/logic operations. Presentations and discussions at the meeting clustered (self-assembled.) on a number of topics, which are brie y outlined below.
