Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLucas Koerner is an Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering with 11 years of experience bridging electronics, optics, and physics through teaching, research, and industrial R&D. He leads an undergraduate research group focused on electro-optical hardware, photodetection, and precision electrical instrumentation for challenging measurement problems. His background includes camera systems and IC validation at Apple—where he led AF/OIS lens driver design and power reductions—and space and detector engineering at Johns Hopkins APL and Cornell, giving him rare cross-domain expertise from CMOS VLSI to bench-level optical experiments. Comfortable at the interfaces of firmware, optics, and electronics, he translates fundamental physics into practical, testable systems and mentors students to do the same. Based in Saint Paul, MN, he combines academic rigor with hands-on product experience that accelerates translation from prototype to deployed instrument.
