About

Richard M. Crooks is a leading figure in electrochemistry and analytical chemistry, renowned for pioneering work in bipolar electrochemistry and molecular transport. His research centers on developing innovative electrochemical platforms, including the invention of a large-scale, wireless bipolar electrode microarray. This breakthrough, detailed in his highly cited 2009 paper (235 citations), demonstrated a system of 1,000 individually addressable electrodes controlled by just two driving electrodes, linking faradaic reactions at cathodes to light emission for high-throughput sensing. Crooks has also made seminal contributions to understanding molecular transport in nanopores and dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles for catalysis. With over 20,000 citations and an h-index exceeding 80, his work has profoundly impacted fields from biosensing to energy conversion. A Fellow of the American Chemical Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, Crooks is recognized for his ability to merge fundamental electrochemistry with practical device design, inspiring a generation of researchers to explore the frontiers of miniaturized electrochemical systems.
