Professor Abraham Marmur received his PhD in 1974 from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. Then he spent two years as a post-doc at the State University of New York at Buffalo. Later he was a visiting associate professor at the University of Wisconsin – Madison, and a visiting scientist at the IBM Almaden Research Center.
Professor Marmur has been working in the field of interfacial phenomena and wetting for over thirty years. He has published many papers on the theory and practice of wetting processes, and has been consulting for major companies involved in the design and utilization of ink jet printing systems.
He has also participated in many international conferences and has been active in lecturing on interfacial phenomena in universities and industrial sites in many countries. At Technion, Professor Marmur received awards for excellence in research and in teaching. In addition, Professor Marmur was an editor of Reviews in Chemical Engineering, was on the advisory committee of Journal of Colloid and Interface Science and Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, and is on the editorial board of Colloids and Surfaces A.
