Openings
Prof. Anqi Zhang's group in the Department of Medical Engineering at Caltech has one postdoc position and multiple Ph.D. positions in flexible brain-machine interfaces. The group develops innovative tools for the modulation and monitoring of neural circuits through electronic, chemical, and genetic engineering. The ultimate goal is to bring novel technology from the laboratory to the clinic to understand and treat neurological disorders. The selected postdoc candidate is expected to start in March 2025 or shortly thereafter. Ph.D. candidates are expected to start in the fall of 2025.
For the postdoc position:
Individuals with a Ph.D. degree from all engineering and science majors, especially Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, and Physics, are encouraged to apply. We especially welcome self-motivated candidates with hands-on experience in areas such as bioelectronics, microfabrication, animal surgery, and signal processing.
Interested postdoc candidates should contact Prof. Zhang (anqizhang@caltech.edu) with their anticipated start date, research interests, and a CV outlining their research accomplishments. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled, and selected candidates will be contacted for an interview.
For the Ph.D. positions:
Students with a Bachelor's or Master's degree in engineering or science, especially in Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, and Physics, are encouraged to apply. Preference will be given to self-driven candidates with a solid experimental background.
Prospective Ph.D. students are encouraged to contact Prof. Zhang (anqizhang@caltech.edu) with their research interests and a CV detailing their research achievements. Ph.D. applications should be submitted by December 15, 2024, following the instructions provided here:
