Josh Hunt, PhD

Hello, I'm Josh! I have several professional identities: I am a nonhuman (i.e., mouse) systems and computational neuroscientist, applied biostatistician/real-world evidence clinical data scientist, and most recently, wannabe neurotechnologist. I have ~10 years of neuroscience research training with experience contributing to and leading neuroscience research projects, developing scientific software in Python, R, MATLAB, and C++, and developing machine learning models for research applications. In my career, I would like to help develop technology that will improve peoples' health and quality of life. I'm especially interested in restorative BCIs that are being used to give people back their ability to sense, move, and communicate. Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to connect.

Projects and repos

Here are some of the data analyses, tools, and machine learning applicatoins I've worked on that can give you a sense of my interests and technical abilities.
This is a GitHub repo that describes a transformer I built with PyTorch to solve a human neural speech decoding task.
This is a toolkit I developed that showcases a variety of ML/DL techniques I implemented from scratch with PyTorch.
This is a Python package that uses machine learning (scikit-learn) to extract eye movements from video recordings of the eye.
This is a Python package that showcases neural decoding techniques implemented with PyTorch.
This is a Python package for parallelizing the operation of multiple FLIR Blackfly S USB3 cameras.
This is a Python package that houses the data analysis software I developed for my doctoral thesis project.
This is a Python package built on top of PsychoPy for operating a miniature virtual reality system.
A Python package for aligning single-unit data with the Allen Common Coordinate System.
This is a GitHub repository that showcases some exploratory data analysis of my post-PhD job search.
