Position Description
The Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) Bionics Lab is seeking a highly motivated Fellow with a background in Biomedical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or Neural Engineering to join our interdisciplinary research team. This position supports an exciting clinical trial exploring muscle-controlled robotic systems, pushing the boundaries of human-machine interfacing and neuroprosthetics.
You will work at the intersection of neuroscience, engineering, and clinical science, gaining hands-on experience with human subject research, robotics, and electrophysiological data analysis, while contributing to impactful translational research.
Key Responsibilities
  • Support the design and execution of a clinical trial focused on muscle-driven robotic technologies.
  • Assist in IRB protocol development and ongoing human subject documentation.
  • Conduct electromyographic (EMG) recordings and signal processing to analyze motor control and performance.
  • Interface with patients, clinicians, engineers, and neuroscientists as part of a collaborative team.
  • Perform data collection, processing, and statistical analysis in Python or MATLAB.
  • Document findings, prepare reports, and contribute to manuscript preparation.
  • Ensure research activities comply with regulatory standards and ethical guidelines.

Why Join Us?
This position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in neuroengineering, while working alongside roboticists, neuroscientists, and clinicians. You'll gain valuable experience in clinical trial execution, device testing, and data science-skills that are highly relevant for future careers in graduate school, medical school, or industry R&D.
The project is fast-paced and impact-driven, providing significant room for growth, learning, and publication.
Basic Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree (BS) in Biomedical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Neural Engineering, or a closely related field.
  • 2+ years of research experience, ideally involving human subjects or clinical research.
  • Proficiency in electromyography (EMG) analysis and basic signal processing techniques.
  • Strong programming skills in MATLAB or Python.
  • Familiarity with IRB protocols, informed consent procedures, and human subject protections.
  • Excellent organizational skills and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced research environment.
  • Strong interpersonal and written communication skills.

Additional Qualifications
  • Prior experience in clinical trial operations or assisting in clinical studies.
  • Familiarity with prosthetics, robotic systems, or neuromodulation technologies.
  • Exposure to interdisciplinary collaboration in research settings.

Special Instructions
Please include aslide deck that captures your most salient research experience as part of your application.
