ABOUT THE ROLE

The postholder will be an Electronic Engineer within the Next Generation Neural Interfaces (NGNI) Lab and will support research in the area of precision neurotechnologies. This post is part of an Advanced Research + Invention Agency (ARIA)-funded project, subject to contract negotiations.
The postholder will join a highly dedicated team responsible for the delivery of a novel electronic device to modulate a biohybrid neural interface. The post holder will be a key contributor to the development of an electronic system consisting of (but not limited to) an optoelectronic probe, driver circuits, embedded system, power management, and PC interface with the relevant firmware and software for real-time data streaming, control, processing and visualization. The post holder will also be responsible for encapsulation and implantable packaging of the system for chronic in-vivo application. The post holder will also support use of the system in experimental neuroscience and iterate designs based on end-user feedback.
