Polymer Membrane Lab

Anastasia Hubina

Anastasia completed her Master of Science degree in Chemistry (Sorptive and Membrane Technologies) at the National University of “Kyiv-Mohyla Academy” and went on to pursue a Ph.D. under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Sci. Y. Nizelskii at the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. In 2013, Anastasia successfully defended her Ph.D. thesis titled “Polyurethane networks based on xanthan and blocked polyisocyanate,” with Dr. Sci. Natalia Kozak as her supervisor. From 2014 to 2016, she gained experience in polyaminoacid chemistry at the laboratory of Prof. Dr. Sci. T. Tennikova (Saint-Petersburg State University). Since 2016, Anastasia continued her research at the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry NAS of Ukraine, focusing on polysaccharide modification. She also supervised MSc and Bc students from the National University of “Kyiv-Mohyla Academy”.

In 2022, Anastasia worked as a researcher in Dr. S. Rogalsky Group at the Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry and Petrochemistry NAS of Ukraine. Later, she joined the laboratory of Dr. O. Sedlacek at the Department of Physical and Macromolecular Chemistry of Charles University.

Anastasia began working as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Polymers at the University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague in December 2022. The group’s current research focuses on synthesis of polymer membranes for application in alkaline water electrolyzers. The research currently includes two main directions: the development of polytriazole and polyimide-based membranes.
