Summary
Isabella Huang is a PhD candidate in Chemical Engineering at NYU Tandon with nine years of research experience spanning polymer upcycling, polymer-grafted nanoparticle membranes, and water-responsive materials. She completed a B.E. at Macaulay Honors College (CCNY) and held competitive research fellowships at Columbia, including the ChemE-NYC REU and Columbia-Amazon SURE, where she gained hands-on skills in SAXS, melt-press operation, Python data analysis, and wet chemistry. Her work bridges materials science and environmental applications, with a growing focus on water-treatment membranes informed by coursework in hydrology and atmospheric science. Practical lab experience—ranging from laser-cut component fabrication to mechanical testing—complements her computational data analysis, making her adept at translating experiments into actionable insights. Ambitious and interdisciplinary, she combines polymer physics knowledge with environmental systems thinking to pursue sustainable membrane solutions.
