Scott M. Husson, Ph.D.

Research Interests: Bioseparations and Separation Materials Synthesis

Professor Husson’s research group uses surface engineering methods, especially surface-initiated polymerization, to create advanced materials for the recovery and purification of biological products. His group is developing next-generation membranes for protein separations and virus clearance, and using molecular imprinting as a tool to prepare polymer nanolayers that perform molecular recognition. The group uses a number of state-of-the-art surface analytical tools to study the interactions between polymer nanolayers and proteins and cells, with the aim to understand how the physical and chemical properties of the nanolayers impact their performance, whether they are to perform a selective separation, to prevent protein fouling of a membrane surface, or to detect a molecule as the recognition element of a sensor device.
