Paschalis Alexandridis is Distinguished Professor in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York (SUNY), where he has served as Director of the Materials Science and Engineering program and Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Education in the School of Engineering. He earned his PhD in chemical engineering from MIT and has carried out postdoctoral research in polymer physical chemistry at Lund University. Alexandridis is an expert on soft matter and complex fluids, whose research bridges molecular organization to mesoscale structure, and translates these into processes and products that are energy-efficient and environmentally responsible. Ongoing projects address block copolymer self-assembly, diffusion in semicrystalline polymers, plastics and textile recycling, and PFAS sequestration. Alexandridis has 210 journal publications and 6 US patents (Google Scholar h-index 87 and 28,500 citations as of 8/2026). He is a Fellow of AAAS, AIChE, RSC, and IAAM, and held leadership positions within AIChE Area 1C: "Interfacial Phenomena" and the ACS Division of Colloid and Surface Chemistry. Alexandridis is the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Dispersion Science and Technology, Section Editor-in-Chief of Polymers, and Review Editor of the Journal of Surfactants and Detergents.
