Hi, my name is Jack Rademacher and I'm a PhD student at MIT

I built this site to showcase my research, projects, and backpacking trips. I received my undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering at the University of Michigan in 2021, and currently I am a graduate research assistant in the Signal Kinetics group at the MIT Media Lab. My research focuses on ultra low power, long range underwater backscatter for large-scale ocean and climate monitoring, aquaculture, and naval defense.
