Protein interactions and phase behavior

Co-Advisor: Prof. Abraham Lenhoff

Processes involving protein remain mainly empirical based on trial and error. Our goal is to develop the understanding of protein phase behavior, to be able to build rational design procedure for crystallization, bioseparation, drug formulation and packaging.

Our approaches consist to measure protein interactions and explain observed trends at a molecular level using the experimental and computational tools available.
