Biography

Before coming to Brown University, I received a Ph.D and M.S. degrees in

Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Florida. I was working in the

Computational NeuroEngineering Laboratory, supervised by Dr. Jose C. Principe.

I was involved in a joint brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) project with

Duke University, SUNY and MIT, which was sponsored by DARPA.

In this project, I have developed a number of signal processing algorithmic tools

for decoding kinematic variables from an array of hundreds of neuronal firing rates

collected from motor cortical areas of a monkey, and for analyzing the motor-related

neural systems based on BMIs experimental setups. I received my B.S. degree in

Nuclear Engineering at Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea Rep. in 1994.

I live with my wonderful wife, Mikyung, and two lovely daughters, Ejew and Ewon.
