Marco Fratus works on the theory and design of microneedle-based sensors and biosensors, developing mathematical models to predict how these tiny needle-array devices detect substances in the body (like glucose) and deliver drugs. His research combines electrochemistry, sensor engineering, and physiological modeling to guide the design of wearable diagnostic and drug-delivery patches, such as for glycemic (blood sugar) monitoring or Parkinson's disease tracking.
Publication output was sparse and irregular from 2017-2022 but increased notably from 2023 onward, suggesting a recent period of growing research activity.
