Research Scientist Intern, Neuromotor Control (PhD)
Redmond, WA | Burlingame, CA
At Reality Labs, our goal is to invent the user interface technologies that will drive the next generation of augmented-reality experiences. Our aim is to unleash human potential by removing barriers between intent and action. In particular, we are seeking candidates who have experience with one or more of the following: human motor learning and control, neuromotor signal processing (EMG, electrophysiology, EEG etc.), modeling of sensorimotor processing, computational neuroscience, perceptual modeling, haptic perception and processing and/or computational cognitive science.
As a research intern, you will work on projects that span modeling, algorithm development and human-in-the-loop experimentation. You will have access to cutting-edge technology, resources, and testing facilities, and will collaborate with a diverse and interdisciplinary team of researchers and engineers.
We invite applicants from a broad range of backgrounds spanning theoretical to experimental and integrated approaches.
Our internships are twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) weeks long and we have various start dates throughout the year. Some projects may require a minimum of 16 consecutive weeks.Research Scientist Intern, Neuromotor Control (PhD) Responsibilities
