Associate Electrical Engineer – Neural Bypass Lab

Northwell Health

The Neural Bypass Lab explores ways to restore movement and sensory feedback in paralyzed study participants. We develop technology that decodes and re-routes signals from the brain to the muscles with applications to spinal cord injury, stroke, traumatic brain injury, and other neurological conditions. Please click here for more info on the dept.

Each successful candidate will work as part of a multidisciplinary team to determine the nature of neural control over muscle and other functions of the body, the parts of the brain that regulate those functions, and the signals that the brain receives. Projects will focus on determining which neural pathways exert control, the types of signals they use, and how these signals can be manipulated to treat conditions such as paralysis, stroke, and Crohn’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes and others.

As an Electrical Engineer, you will perform investigative research in the field of neuro-modulation and device development. You will test and evaluate implantable devices developed for neuro-stimulation and recording in the brain and nerves.
