Phil Xie

Hi, I'm Phil! 👋

I'm passionate about neurotechnology, medical devices and imaging, machine learning, and music, and I'm actively working on these things.

I am a 4th-year Electrical Engineering and Computer Science student at UC Berkeley, minoring in Bioengineering. I've designed my curriculum around the areas about which I'm passionate 👆.

I've done research in Transcranial Magnetic Brain Stimulation and Machine Learning for 3D Multi-class Cancer Tumor Segmentation on MRIs. Currently, I'm working on mapping dexterous sensorimotor control in human and primate brains, and am interested in the neurotech startup space. More about my experience

I'm grateful to be leading Neurotech@Berkeley 🧠, a group of 100+ undergrads actively building BCI devices, software, and wetware, and getting more people interested in the field through our student-led courses, publications, and diverse event series.

I love playing and thinking about music -- I play the piano, bassoon, and chromatic harmonica in jazz, classical, and pop genres, and am always curious about the connection between music and our brains and bodies. I'm currently trying to learn more about sound design!

I do not (yet) own Philz Coffee, but will still thank you for your business if you do buy a coffee from the Californian chain. For reasons not so obvious, I'm a fan of their Philtered Soul and Philharmonic flavors.

Always happy to chat or grab a coffee - please send me an email at phil.xie [at] berkeley [dot] edu or on LinkedIn!
