Nathalie Helene Katsonis (born 22 February 1978 in Vienna, Austria) is a Professor of Active Molecular Systems at the Stratingh Institute for Chemistry, University of Groningen.

[2] She joined the research group of Ben Feringa at the University of Groningen, where she worked on self-assembly of motors and switches.

[4] Katsonis joined the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in 2007 and started to work on light-responsive chiral liquid crystals.

In 2012 she was awarded a Royal Society International Exchange grant to work with Steve Fletcher on light responsive polymers.

[10] Her recent work has been concerned with unravelling the molecular origin of purposeful motion, both in space and time at the nanoscale.
