Josh Chartier

Josh Chartier is a dedicated researcher with extensive experience in neuroengineering and bioengineering. Josh began as an undergraduate researcher at Rice University, where contributions included designing optical setups for bio-sensing and pioneering in vivo electrophysiology experiments. As a PhD candidate at the University of California, San Francisco, Josh investigated neural mechanisms of speech production and developed machine learning algorithms for brain signal decoding. Continuing as a postdoctoral scholar, Josh led efforts in creating a brain-computer interface for individuals with severe movement and speech impairments. Josh's expertise further spans roles at Meta as a research scientist focused on neuromotor interfaces, and an internship at Google involving convolutional neural networks for imaging applications. Academic credentials include a PhD in Bioengineering and Biomedical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley and a BSEE in Electrical Engineering from Rice University.
