Principal Investigator (PI)
Cameron R. Taylor, Ph.D
Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering
UNC-Chapel Hill | NC State University
Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering
Dr. Cameron Taylor develops human interfaces that restore ability in persons with movement disorders resulting from various neuromusculoskeletal factors. During his doctorate at MIT, he developed the first clinically-viable technology for real-time muscle tissue length tracking, from first principles through implantation in human patients. His background is wide ranging, from research in magnetoquasistatics, electromagnetic signal propagation, and algorithm design to neural interfacing and muscle physiology, and his work lives at the intersection of these various fields.
He is the recipient of the 2023 Promising Investigator Award at the Rocky Mountain Muscle Symposium Pre-Conference Summit, and his research has been featured in various news outlets, including Physics World, Electronic Design, and MIT Technology Review. He can often be found spending time with his family, tinkering with electronics at his workbench, reading a Brandon Sanderson book, cooking focaccia, or trail running in the forest.
