Engineering transformative sensing and perception technologies for next-generation sensory intelligence.
Every living system broadcasts. Most of it is never heard.
Six Ti-6Al-4V fasteners back out — four full turns each — and the signal deck lifts free — watch the instrument.
Reassembled. Torqued to spec. Decoding the signals of life — from neurons to orbit.
Each domain maps to a subsystem of the instrument. As you scroll, the hardware isolates the part that does the work.
Modeling living systems as computation — from chemoreception to morphogenesis — and translating nature's algorithms into engineered perception.
Extracting meaning from faint electromagnetic whispers — RF, microwave, and biofield signals — with sub-noise-floor detection pipelines.
Porous MOF nanostructures as synthetic noses in orbit — gram-scale sensing payloads engineered for the 1U CubeSat envelope.
Translating neural oscillations into sound, control, and language — auditory BCIs that let the brain be heard, literally.
Johns Hopkins pre-doctoral fellow and former Raytheon RF/Microwave Engineer. Priya leads BPL's research across biosignal sensing, superconducting antennas, and computational biology — bridging aerospace-grade engineering rigor with the messiness of living systems.
PhD in Mechanical Engineering (UConn). Zayan drives BPL's hardware programs — sensor mechanics, cryogenic packaging, and CubeSat payload integration.
Senior advisor guiding BPL's research strategy and academic partnerships.
Investigates regularity conditions on foliated structures of smooth manifolds, with implications for the geometry of dynamical systems underlying biological signal spaces.
Metal-organic frameworks engineered as tunable molecular recognition surfaces — a path toward gram-scale synthetic noses for orbital and clinical sensing.
A superconducting magnesium diboride loop antenna tuned to the neural frequency band, coupled to an auditory rendering chain that converts brain oscillations into sound in real time.
Argues that classes of apparently stochastic processes admit deterministic underlying descriptions, with consequences for modeling noise in biological measurement.
A wireless ECG acquisition system streaming over Wi-Fi, with a MIDI mapping layer that renders cardiac rhythm as live, listenable music.
Derives closed-form counting expressions related to the distribution of twin primes — early evidence of the lab's taste for hard structure beneath apparent randomness.
Hands-on research across BCIs, nanosensing, and DSP. Co-author preprints. Build hardware that flies.
Lead an independent line of inquiry inside one of our four domains, with direct path to senior staff.
Bring decades of judgment to a young lab. Flexible hours, advisory and review engagements.
