Summary
Caleb Kemere is an associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at Rice University with 14 years of experience bridging advanced signal processing, neuroscience, and real-time embedded systems. He combines deep expertise in C/C++, MATLAB, assembly, and real-time signal processing with hands-on work in electrophysiology and optogenetics dating back to postdoctoral systems that combined in-vivo neural recording with optical activation. His research and teaching trace to Stanford PhD work on neural prosthetic systems and practical DSP labs, reflecting a talent for turning complex models—Markov models, statistical signal processing—into deployable systems. Caleb’s background in laser optics and experimental neuroscience complements his engineering rigor, enabling interdisciplinary projects that span hardware, firmware, and data analysis. Based in Houston, he is known for integrating classroom innovation with lab-grade instrumentation and for mentoring students to translate neuroscience algorithms into real-time embedded applications.
