Summary
Sho Nakagome is a neuroengineering researcher and applied machine learning practitioner with 11 years of experience building EEG-based Brain-Computer Interfaces and large-scale data pipelines. Currently a Research Scientist at Meta and a Ph.D. alum and former RA at the University of Houston’s Non-Invasive Brain Machine Interface Lab, he blends digital signal processing, state-space estimation (e.g., Kalman filtering), and deep learning to translate noisy neural and EMG signals into actionable interfaces. His industry internships at HP and Patchd gave him hands-on experience with Databricks/Spark, recommendation systems, and clinical early-warning modeling, demonstrating an ability to move research ideas into production-ready analytics. Sho’s long-term ambition is to create semi-invasive “Cyberbrain”-style BCI systems, and he pairs MRI/EEG source analysis skills with practical experience in large data ecosystems. Based in Redmond, WA, he uniquely combines academic rigor with product-oriented engineering at the intersection of neuroscience and HCI.
