Dr. David Jangraw is seeking PhD students for his new research group, the Glass Brain Lab. The lab's focus is "naturalistic neuroengineering": the use of new technology to study the human brain in realistic situations. By understanding the brain as it operates in real life, we can pave the way for devices that detect problematic brain states in real-time and provide help or support, a sort of pacemaker for the brain. EEG, fMRI, eye tracking, and machine learning will be central to this effort. Sample projects will study mindless reading, attentional reorienting in virtual environments, and automated labeling of psychotherapy techniques.

If you are/know a bright undergrad interested in emerging tech and human brain imaging, please get in touch! Our home department gives degrees in Electrical and Biomedical Engineering, but students seeking degrees in Neuroscience, Computer Science, or related fields will also be considered. Applications are due 1/15/21.
