People in the Membrane Center

Director

 
Prof. Andrew Zydney: Artificial organs, bioseparations, and membrane processes, with the goal of developing a more fundamental understanding of the factors governing the behavior of these processes, including the complex interactions between the biological molecules/cells and the synthetic materials used in these devices. Email: zydney@engr.psu.edu [Zydney Google scholar]
