NETP Seminar Series:
Karlo Malaga, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering, Bucknell University
Time & Date: 9:00 am, December 14th, 2023
Location: NCRC B10 ARC2
Abstract: Dr. Malaga will discuss the evolution of his career, tracing his journey from his time as an undergraduate student to his present role as a faculty member.Biography: Karlo Malaga is an Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering (BME) at Bucknell University. He graduated from the University of Michigan in 2019 with a Ph.D. in BME. Karlo earned a bachelor’s degree in BME from the University of Minnesota in 2012 and a master’s degree in BME from the University of Michigan in 2014. His research interests are in neural engineering, specifically neuroprosthetics and electric field modeling of deep brain stimulation, a surgical therapy for movement disorders such as Parkinson disease. Complementing his scholarly work is a passion for teaching, which is what led him to Bucknell.
