Biomedical Signal Processing Engineer (Neurorecovery)
City University of New York
College of Staten Island
Staten Island, NY
Working in our multidisciplinary, energetic research team, the Biomedical Engineer with a passion for signal processing, data analysis and real-life biomedical challenges will assume a major role in data collection and analysis for several projects in human movement and rehabilitation for individuals with spinal cord injury. Projects use a multidisciplinary approach involving electrophysiological techniques (EMG, TMS, spinal reflex conditioning protocols, transspinal stimulation), and kinematics (motion capture, force), combined with advanced signal processing and analysis to better understand brain-spinal function, impairment, and recovery following novel rehabilitation interventions.
Responsibilities include (but are not limited to) the following:
-Setting up and operating equipment including Lokomat, EMG, TMS, and motion-tracker systems;
-Performing data collections involving research participants;
-Processing experimental data, developing new methods, computer programs, and data processing algorithms as required;
-Assisting with recruiting, screening, enrollment, and scheduling of participants; and
-Assisting with preparation of papers and presentations.
The following qualifications are required:
-PhD or MS degree(s) in signal processing/biomedical engineering or closely related field; and
-Background and experience in signal processing and biomedical instrumentation.
In addition, the following qualifications are preferred:
-Strong computer skills with solid programming experience, particularly in Matlab;
-Specific interests and/or experience in the following areas: neuromuscular rehabilitation; biomedical signal processing (e.g., EEG, TMS, and EMG); brain and muscle electrophysiology; and
-Prior research experience with human subjects.
To apply, please send your résumé and a cover letter summarizing relevant research expertise, experience, and interests to Maria.Knikou@csi.cuny.edu.
