Summary
Paul Mcnulty is a PhD-trained experimental physicist with nine years of experience designing and building complex neuroscience instrumentation and teaching hands-on experimental physics. He developed a custom two-photon imaging system for recording neural activity in freely behaving insects, integrating optical design, FPGA demultiplexing, PCB layout, 3D printing, and LabVIEW+MATLAB pipelines. Equally comfortable mentoring students and leading lab engineering, he has a track record of turning scientific questions into robust, reproducible experiments and curricula—from Raspberry Pi robots to a student-built Foucault pendulum. Based in New York, he brings a blend of tinkering practicality and quantitative rigor that bridges hardware engineering, machine learning–based behavior analysis, and classroom leadership.
