Professional Summary
The goal of the Bioseparations Lab is to develop novel and cost-effective strategies for recovery and purification of recombinant and native proteins by understanding constraints posed by the biological system and the product. Lab members have experience in protein biochemistry, analytical methods development, bioseparations, process design and economics. By leveraging the scientific and engineering expertise we strive to find solutions for a variety of bioprocessing and separations challenges that currently face industrial biotechnology.
