About Precision Neuroscience
Precision is building a direct connection between the human brain and computers, to benefit the hundreds of millions of people worldwide suffering from neurological conditions. Established in 2021, we are a leader in the development and commercialization of brain-computer interfaces (BCI).
As a Precision employee, you will be collaborating with experts across a diverse array of fields-including neurosurgery, mechanical engineering, machine learning, and microfabrication-to push the boundaries of what is possible. You will be joining a well capitalized and fast-moving company. In the two years since Precision's founding, we have built and validated a product and have begun human trials in partnership with some of the country's leading neurosurgery programs. And you will be working toward a deeply meaningful goal: restoring function to people living with devastating neurological conditions, including stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, and neurodegenerative disease such as ALS. Our platform will enable these individuals to regain independence, communicate with loved ones, and return to work.
Team Description:
The Clinical Research team is responsible for planning, conducting, and documenting intra- and extra-operative studies of our micro ECoG array with patients and clinicians. Our team drives the clinical development and research implementation of a product that will give people with paralysis the ability to control computers and phones with their minds at the same speed and functionality level as able-bodied people. In this role you'll collaborate with physicians, neuroscientists, and software, hardware and machine learning engineers to develop the next-generation human-ready Brain-Computer Interface (BCI).
We are seeking a Clinical Research Neuroscientist to help us execute on clinical research, analyze the collected data, and assist in preparing publications and reports. In this role you will help drive the state-of-the-art in real-time brain mapping and brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), playing a critical role in advancing our understanding of neurological disorders and optimizing performance of BCI. This position offers a unique opportunity to leverage cutting-edge data analytics techniques to drive innovation in the field of neurotechnology.
This position will be on-site in Manhattan, New York, and involves up to 50% traveling. We are unable to consider remote workers. You must be currently in the United States with working rights to apply.
