Expect rigorous mentoring, cross-disciplinary teamwork, and opportunities to publish

Research interests

Translational neurotechnology built on semiconductor rigor. We design human-grade neural interfaces and take them into the operating room, rooted in deep expertise in Si/SiGe and compound semiconductors (InAs, GaAs, GaN, InN) and the hetero-integration science that makes reliable medical hardware possible. Our lab’s platforms include platinum-nanorod (PtNR) electrodes on flexible films, ultra-dense ECoG “PtNRGrids,” flexible stereo-depth arrays, and a Brain-iEEG microdisplay for real-time surgical mapping, used in 100+ patients across three centers and supported by an FDA IDE for a 1,024-channel intraoperative system.
