Lucas received his undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering from The University of Michigan in May 2022. His undergraduate research focused on evaluating scalable processing techniques for semi-transparent photovoltaics and OLED lighting. He is currently an NSF Graduate Research Fellow pursuing a PhD in Electrical Engineering under the supervision of Professor Ana Arias.
Research
Lucas’ research is centered on developing printed electrochemical sensors designed for chemical sensing with high temporal and spatial resolution. A key challenge in his work is mitigating calibration drift during long-term continuous measurements. To address this, he is investigating how to employ collaborative, printed multi-sensor nodes to perform drift compensation. Looking ahead, Lucas aims to develop advanced in-situ recalibration techniques that will extend the capabilities of ion monitoring, particularly for long-term health and environmental applications.
