UNDERSTANDING THE NEURAL BASIS OF VOLITIONAL STATE THROUGH CONTINUOUS RECORDINGS IN HUMANS

Massachusetts General Hospital (Sydney Cash)

Project ID: 1U01NS098968

Contact PI: Sydney Cash

Dataset Size: 190.7 GB

Description:

From simple decisions to more significant and complex thoughts, we constantly shift our aims and intentions and the degree to which we are interacting externally or internally. Understanding these shifts is key to the development of truly autonomous brain-computer interfaces and neuroprosthetics as well as to understanding how these kinds of alterations can be compromised in a wide variety of neuropsychiatric diseases. This multidisciplinary and multi-institutional project goes beyond routine cognitive studies based on constrained stimulus response designs and instead utilizes continuous recordings of neural activity during spontaneous behavior to decode changes in volitional state during motor activity and communication.
