Research interests
Dr. Mugo research is focused on developing “smart” polymer nanomaterials that are integrated in fabricating frugal and mobile point-of-need (PON) spectro-electrochemical chemical sensing. Our mobile chemical sensors that integrate data analytics apps are tailored for use by the general public in precision agri-food & environmental quality assessment and noninvasive wearables for mental health & wellness monitoring. Dr. Mugo believes the innovative technologies his group develops are more impactful if they find utility in solving society issues. As such, Dr. Mugo is actively involved in technology translation from lab to industry and community. | Nanotechnology, responsive polymer hydrogels, nanozymes, molecular imprinting technology, smart point-of-need (PON) chemical sensors, smartphone-based colorimetric sensors, electrochemical sensors, agri-food and environmental sensors, wearable sensor for mental health & wellness monitoring, citizen science, knowledge translation ecosystems
