Dr. Cameron Taylor is a research scientist at the K. Lisa Yang Center for Bionics at MIT, co-directed by Professor Hugh Herr. Cameron's work led to the development of magnetomicrometry, a new technique enabling precise, real-time tracking of muscle contraction during movement. Cameron's work has exciting prospects for the control of wearable robotics including prostheses and exoskeletons, and is not too far away from being tried out in humans. Listen to learn more!
