In this article, we review the recent advances in the field of block copolymer membranes. We discuss the similarities and differences between natural membranes and their polymeric counterparts, pointing out the advantages of the latter in applications for biosciences and biomaterials. Membrane properties are discussed in terms of functionality and responsiveness, and the most interesting application possibilities are highlighted.
