DESCRIPTION:DNA is a wonderful material for nanoscale construction: it is 
 a structural material whose self-assembly can be programmed by making use 
 of its information-carrying capability\, and its hybridization can be used
  as an energy source for molecular devices. I shall describe recent work o
 n self-assembled DNA polyhedra and their applications as molecular cages. 
 I shall also discuss the design of synthetic molecular machinery\, includi
 ng progress towards the construction of a free-running molecular motor fue
 lled by DNA.
