Summary
👤
SeniorDano Morrison is a research engineer in New York with 11 years of experience applying neuroscience to real-world interfaces, currently prototyping EMG-based interactions for VR/AR at Meta. He blends a solid academic background in physiology and neuroscience with hands-on software engineering, having built EEG-focused apps, desktop tools, and full-stack biomedical platforms across startups and research labs. At CTRL-labs and Meta he translated neural signals into product-ready APIs and interaction models, and his open-source work includes refining Muse EEG streaming pipelines for robust real-time data handling. Comfortable across Python, React/Electron, TypeScript, and embedded Android, he moves fluidly between signal processing, ML for brain data, and UX-driven prototypes. Unusually, his early summers running a scuba-based lake weed removal business reflect practical field skills and a knack for building repeatable operations outside tech. He organizes community events to demystify neurotech, combining technical depth with a talent for making brain data accessible and fun.
