🧠 Our new (NIH funded!) paper reveals how the brain creates internal dynamics during both real- and imagined navigation. We recorded directly from the human hippocampus as participants moved through physical space and when they mentally navigated imagined routes.

Check out our new review/perspective (w/ @juangallego.bsky.social & Devika Narain) on neural manifolds in the brain! It was a lot of fun to think through these ideas over the past couple of years, and I'm excited it's finally out in the world!

Nanthia Suthana, PhD, is especially interested in the complex processes that drive memory and emotion, and in developing therapies using neurostimulation to treat disorders that involve those processes. neurosurgery.duke.edu/news/learnin...

A study in Nature Human Behaviour suggests that physical and imagined movement through real-world environments may use the same neural mechanism in the brain. The findings might help us to better understand human memory in real-world settings. https://go.nature.com/3R1FmPO 🧪
This is figure 1, which shows the experimental paradigm.

🚨 New lab paper!🚨

A dream study of mine for nearly 20 yrs not possible until now thanks to NIH 🧠 funding & 1st-author lead @seeber.bsky.social

We tracked hippocampal activity as people walked memory-guided paths & imagined them again. Did brain patterns reappear?🧵👇

These findings shed light on the brain waves that help us find our ways, imagine scenarios, and recollect episodic memories. In summary, these neural dynamics may be relevant for supporting experiences that are detached from the here and now.

The fascinating result? Similar neural patterns emerge in both scenarios! The hippocampal theta oscillations we observed encode spatial information even when we imagine moving along specific spatial routes.

Left–right-alternating theta sweeps in entorhinal–hippocampal maps of space - Nature
A study in rats proposes a mechanism for how the brain maps the surrounding environment, including places it has never seen, by alternating left and right forward sweeps in successive theta cycles.
