One startup, two employees and one really smart membrane

Abstract:
William Lee long suspected that nanostructured, intelligent membranes could solve many problems in one broad brush. His startup company aims to prove that theory right. eMembrane Inc., based in a business incubator affiliated with Brown University, has developed a technology to graft nanoscale filaments onto a polymer surface. Those filaments can then be customized to bind to specific targets such as ions, proteins or whole cells as they wash across the surface – much like a hairbrush captures hair in its bristles.
