David Usevitch

David earned a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering at Brigham Young University. He earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, working in the Telerobotics Lab. His research involves magnetically steered robotic insertion of cochlear-implant electrode arrays in a live animal model, as well as associated work in image-guided surgery. After graduation, David became at postdoctoral researcher at Johns Hopkins University.
