Research Interests

Dr. Alonso Rivas focuses on the convergence of electronics and biomedical applications. His work spans intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring systems, fast-settling biosignal amplifiers, skin–electrode interface characterization, and portable impedance-based health monitors. He also investigates power-line communication strategies for smart-grid metering, illustrating a dual expertise in clinical electronics and industrial communications.

Publication Focus

Across seven peer-reviewed articles (2014-2022), his research follows two dominant threads: (1) biomedical instrumentation—designing wireless, low-noise devices for real-time neural monitoring and diagnostics; (2) power-line communications—optimizing latency and polling strategies in PRIME-based smart-meter networks. This duality underscores a commitment to both cutting-edge healthcare technology and sustainable energy systems.
