Our new paper is out this week in Nature Neuroscience! www.nature.com/articles/s41... We built a BCI that works with the brain's natural geometry — and we found that people could learn to play a video game with their brains in <1 hr of training. This efficiency is groundbreaking & here's why:
Busch et al. use nonlinear neural manifolds to help humans gain rapid control over a noninvasive brain–computer interface, allowing them to learn how to play a video game with real-time fMRI neurofeed...

Even if they don't dismiss the evidence of its existence, a big chunk of neuroscientists don't seem to get a key question that representational drift raises.
The whole point is that responses reconfigure *without* loosing representational fidelity.
This means *of necessity* that any geometric/
Some more Brain-Machine Interface shenanigans: this time we think we found evidence that an animal's agency in a task modulates hippocampal maps of that task.
