Research assistants are on the front lines of our research studies—collecting data, conducting interviews, testing subjects—and are the face of Kessler Foundation to our research study participants. In 2020, Kessler Foundation was ranked among one of the Best Nonprofits to Work For and Best Places to Work in New Jersey (kesslerfoundation.org/press-release/…ork-new-jersey)!
Throughout this series, we’ll meet up with research assistants from our centers for mobility, spinal cord injury, stroke, traumatic brain injury, and neuroscience and neuropsychology who have been with the Foundation for over a year, and some who are now senior research assistants, nurses, medical students, graduate students, and post docs, and those who applied their experience to other professions.
Stephen worked as a biomedical engineer at Kessler Foundation from 2015-2016, where he performed research to improve the mobility of individuals with a spinal cord injury. Listen in as Stephen talks to Joan Banks-Smith, Creative Producer for Kessler Foundation about his experience at the Foundation.
Mr. Canton is currently a MD/MS candidate at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine poised to graduate in May 2021 with a concentration in Bioengineering, Biotechnology, and Innovation and a Master of Science in Clinical Research. He will be entering residency next year, pursuing a career in orthopedic trauma surgery. He is specifically interested in utilizing virtual/augmented reality and machine learning algorithms to improve surgical interventions, processes, and medical education curricula.
