Biography

Dr. Kharlampieva received her BS degree in Chemistry in 1995 from Chelyabinsk State University, Russia; and an MS in Organic Chemistry in 1996 from Chelyabinsk State University in Russia; and also an MS from Linguistics and Intercultural Communication Chelyabinsk State University in Russia, 2001. She went on to obtain her PhD degree in Polymer Chemistry in 2007 from the Stevens Institute of Technology; her dissertation research topic was Responsive Polyelectrolyte Multilayers. Dr. Kharlampieva joined the UAB Department of Chemistry faculty as an Assistant Professor in 2010.

Research Interest

Synthesis of novel stimuli-responsive polymers; Design of polymeric and bio-materials at nano- and micro-scales with tunable properties and functionalities of biomedical relevance; Development of multifunctional nanocomposites through controlled synthesis and assembly of stimuli-responsive polymers and functional nanostructures for environmental applications and biosensing; Probing mechanisms of polymer and protein assembly at water/solid and biomaterial/cell interfaces; advanced structural and compositional characterization of materials at the nanoscale including in situ Vibrational spectroscopy and Neutron scattering; and exploration of materials performance in ecological and bio-environments through collaborative partnerships with universities, national labs, and industry.

Patents Multilayer hydrogels with pH-responsive swelling and surface wettability United States 9,074,034 Issued July 7, 2015 A novel type of ultrathin cationic hydrogel coatings are provided that have high, quick and reversible swelling/shrinkage transitions and surface wettability in response to pH changes. The poly(4-vinyl pyridine) (PVP) hydrogel films are produced by selective cross-linking of PVP copolymers in layer-by-layer (LbL) films assembled by spin-assisted method. These multilayer hydrogels exhibit drastic...more
