Check out our new paper in @NatureComms on neural representations of memory and space in the human brain during ambulatory navigation. Such an exciting project from @SuthanaLab, spearheaded by the amazing @sabrinalevymaoz nature.com/articles/s4146…
New lab paper 🥳 Our memory study with deep brain recordings during human ambulatory navigation is out today @NatureComms: Combined intracranial EEG, motion capture, & virtual reality during walking🚶🏻♀️ 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4146…
Excited to share my paper in @NatRevPsych discussing why VR offers a controlled yet naturalistic navigation task for people. Emphasizing a need for focusing on natural body movements during navigation 🚶♀️

Preprint 🚨 #Brain signal #decoding and #connectomics for #neurotechnology and #BCI across >100 hours of invasive data from #brainimplants in multiple cohorts of people treated for #Parkinson, #depression and #epilepsy. Spearheaded by @MerkTimon. doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.…
JT Parr swung by the lab & we had some fun chatting about the 🧠. His curiosity led to some interesting questions 😂. Plus, we put him to the test with one of our new mobile VR tasks. Check out the full episode on the YouTube series, “Chad & JT Go Deep” youtu.be/sacJaYdUaeE?si…
Thank you @BUCollegeofENG, I can't wait to join! Also, I will be hiring at all levels: please get in touch if you are interested in human cognition, multimodal neuroimaging, and neurotechnology! Find out more about the lab's focus and methods here: spr.ly/6019PFv7J
Former @UCLA postdoctoral scholar and neuroscientist @MatStangl will be joining @BostonU_BME, the @BU_NPC, the @buCSNneuro, and the Cognitive Neuroimaging Center this January! spr.ly/6019PFv7J
Thank you so much @DGiancioppo and @BU_NPC for writing such a wonderful faculty profile piece about my past and future research. I am very excited and can't wait to launch my new lab in this amazing environment soon. @BostonU_BME @buCSNneuro @BU_Tweets

Excited to share my new collaboration with Lukas Kunz (@lks_kunz ) in which we show that neurons in the human brain encode 2D positions in space.... an emotion space, that is, defined by valence and arousal! And, they do it, dare I say, in a grid-like pattern?
