Neuralink-like brain machine interface in Virtual Reality

Understanding how neural populations change their coding during learning is a central question in systems neuroscience. This project aims to shed light on how changes in the low-dimensional subspaces of population activity across brain regions facilitate learning.

We have established a behavioral paradigm in rats in which we observe the gradual emergence of a behavioral strategy. We then reverse the paradigm rules to probe the animals' ability to generalize.
