UCSD Shadi Dayeh 教授實驗室徵博士後以及博士生

A postdoctoral candidate position in thin-film device fabrication and integration is available in the Integrated Electronics and Biointerfaces Laboratory (IEBL) at UC San Diego.  

 

The postdoctoral candidate will perform translational research as part of a large engineering, neurophysiology, and clinical team to develop a wireless epilepsy monitoring system highlighted in this article

  

Expertise in advanced microfabrication techniques and understanding of basic electronic devices and circuits and data analysis (MATLAB or equivalent) are required.  

 

Expertise in neural interfaces and their electrochemistry, hardware programing, is preferred though not required but must be swiftly acquired during the research at IEBL.

 

A PhD in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Materials Science and Engineering (e.g., high level skill in microfabrication of thin film transistors and sensors, MEMS/NEMS devices, solid-state LEDs on flex) is preferred, or a PhD in Biomedical Device Engineering with specialization in neural interfaces is preferred.  

 

Interested candidates should send their application materials to Prof. Shadi Dayeh at the email sdayeh@eng.ucsd.edu, which should include:

1. A one-page cover letter that summarizes prior expertise and accomplishments and how their academic preparation matches the position described above.

2. A curriculum vitae that includes a complete list of publications and links to these publications including pre-prints.

3. The names of three reference letter writers.

 

About us:

The Integrated Electronics and Biointerfaces Laboratory (IEBL) at UC San Diego develops advanced medical device implants for the human brain and spinal cord for clinical research and clinical trials at multiple high profile clinical centers in the US and conducts cutting edge research in strong partnership with the departments of neurosurgery and neurology at UC San Diego, Oregon Health and Sciences University, and Massachusetts General Hospital. The IEBL prepares its members in the fundamental science and applied technology to lead the future of biomedical and biotechnology device manufacturing and of advanced electronic material growth, device, and system level implementation.

 

IEBL advances salable nanomaufacturing processes and adopts the latest industry techniques and standards in semiconductor and flexible device processing to invent and implement the clinical technologies of the future. IEBL has 4,000 sq ft of dedicated laboratory space with extensive in-house bench top, material, and device characterization laboratories, a cell culture lab, and an awake rodent animal test lab. The lab also performs device implants in the pig animal model at the Center for the Future Surgery and at the Elliott Field of the UC San Diego as well as manages a smart institutional review board (sIRB) for the authorization for clinical research in patients at UC San Diego, Mass General Hospital and OHSU. IEBL is implementing a GMP (good manufacturing practice) cleanroom lab for the development of medical devices for FDA approved clinical research.

 

Recently, the lab received a $12.25M funding from the NIH to develop a wireless epilepsy monitoring system, an effort that involves over a dozen labs within and outside UC San Diego. The lab is also currently funded by an NIH Director’s New Innovator Award to develop LED displays for cortical activity directly from the surface of the brain to aid neurosurgery, another NIH R01 grant to develop advanced serializers for brain mapping and from the NSF for advancing surgical robots.
