Dr. Megan L. Robertson joined the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Houston in the Fall of 2010. Dr. Robertson received a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley in 2006, advised by Nitash P. Balsara. Following graduation, Dr. Robertson worked as a senior scientist at Rohm and Haas (now Dow Chemical) in Spring House, Pennsylvania. She then went to the University of Minnesota as a postdoctoral research associate in the Department of Chemistry, working with Marc A. Hillmyer. Dr. Robertson’s research interests include nanostructured and microstructured polymers, self-assembly processes, thermodynamics of polymer mixtures, and structural characterization with light, neutron and x-ray scattering. The Robertson Research Group works in diverse areas including sustainable polymers derived from renewable resources, biodegradable polymers, advanced resins for polymer composites, structure and dynamics of block copolymer micelles, antifouling polymers and polymer brushes, and thermodynamics of polyolefin and polydiene blends.
