About

Thomas Erichsen is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of electrochemistry, robotics, and bioanalytical science, whose work has fundamentally advanced the field of combinatorial electrochemistry and high-throughput biosensor development. His most significant contributions center on the design and implementation of automated electrochemical robotic systems capable of performing large-scale screening and synthesis tasks with remarkable efficiency. His landmark 2005 paper introducing combinatorial microelectrochemistry (57 citations) established a versatile robotic platform for both electrosynthesis and electroanalysis, while his earlier 2004 work (36 citations) demonstrated its practical power by screening a library of 148 electrodeposition paints to optimize amperometric glucose biosensors. Erichsen further applied combinatorial strategies to nitric oxide sensing, evaluating 83 metalloporphyrin electrocatalysts and developing real-time electrochemical methods for detecting NO release from endothelial cells — work of direct relevance to cardiovascular biology and drug discovery. His 2006 high-content screening study (45 citations) exemplifies his ability to bridge analytical instrumentation with cell biology. With over 180 cumulative citations, Erichsen's research has left a lasting imprint on automated electroanalytical methodology and biosensor engineering, making his publications essential reading for researchers in electrochemical sensing and lab automation.
