Recruitment of postdoctoral research associate/ scientists, and research assistants of Sung Il PARK Research Group of ShanghaiTech University

Dr. Park invites outstanding postdoctoral research associates/scientists, and research assistants to join the "Neural Interface Lab" established by the School of Biomedical Engineering, ShanghaiTech University.

Dr. Sung Il Park is a tenured Associate Professor in School of Biomedical Engineering at ShanghaiTech University. Dr. Park earned his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University. After postdoc training at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, he took a faculty position at Texas A&M University in 2016 and moved to ShanghaiTech University in 2024. He is a Changjiang Scholar and a recipient of 2018 NARSAD Young Investigator Award from Brain & Behavior Research Foundation which is one the world’s largest non-government funder of grants for brain study. He has published over 30 peer-reviewed journal papers in Nature, Nature Biotechnology, Neurons, Nature Communications, and PNAS. These works featured in many new outlets including ABC (one of broadcast in USA), NSF Discoveries, MIT Technology Review, Dailymail, Sciencetimes, etc. He is holding 5 US patents.

The Park lab collaborated with renowned experts including National Academy of Science member and Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator. Dr. Park was the first to develop a fully implantable optoelectronic device that can be used for studies of peripheral nervous systems. We are developing soft neural interface platforms that can control neural interfaces and integrate data transmission, signal processing, and power management. These works involve fabrication of electronic systems and development of novel antenna systems and integrated circuit systems. In parallel, we are studying novel methods to maximize wireless power transmission into biological tissue. We aim high and are conducting high impact projects through close collaborations with top-notched researchers in the world.
