      • Recent breakthroughs in optical-based imaging in nonhuman primates promise to fundamentally advance our understanding of brain function and accelerate the development of next-generation brain-computer interfaces.
      • Two new studies demonstrate complementary approaches for imaging the activity patterns of large populations of neurons in nonhuman primates (NHPs).
      • Bollimunta*, Santacruz* & colleagues used a head-mounted one-photon miniature microscope to image the activity of neurons deep in the motor cortex of a behaving macaque, and demonstrated the ability to perform offline decoding of the animal’s motor behavior using the same neurons tracked over weeks.
      • Trautmann*, O’Shea*, Sun* & colleagues used two-photon microscopy to image the activity of neurons, also in the motor cortex, and show that it is possible to access deep cortical neurons by imaging their apical dendrites near the surface, allowing them to perform online, closed-loop decoding of the behaving macaque’s motor behavior sufficient to drive an optical brain-computer interface (oBCI).
      • Together, these studies pave the way for new experiments to understand how populations of neurons underlie behavior, and how new BCI technologies can treat neurological injury and disease.

Character Building. Brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) have the potential to restore communication to people who have lost the ability to move or speak. To date, the focus has largely been on motor skills such as reaching or grasping. In this week’s issue, Francis Willett and his colleagues present the results from an intracortical BCI that decodes attempted handwriting movements from neural activity in the motor cortex and translates it to text in real time. The researchers worked with a man who is paralysed from the neck down, asking him to try to write by imagining he was holding a pen on a piece of paper. The BCI used a neural network to translate the neural signals into letters, allowing the man to reach a writing speed of 90 characters per minute with an accuracy of 94.1%. The cover features aggregated images of the alphabet derived from the study participant’s neural activity as he thought about writing. Cover image: K. Krause / Nature adapted from F. R. Willett et al. Nature 593, 249–254 (2021). High-resolution version:  pdf.

    • Videos
      • Video 1: Copying sentences in real-time with the handwriting brain-computer interface. In this video, participant T5 copies sentences displayed on a computer monitor with the handwriting-brain computer interface. When the red square on the monitor turns green, this cues T5 to begin copying the sentence. url
      • Video 2: Hand micromotion while using the handwriting brain-computer interface. Participant T5 is paralyzed from the neck down (C4 ASIA C spinal cord injury) and only generates small micromotions of the hand when attempting to handwrite. T5 retains no useful hand function. url
      • Video 3: Freely answering questions in real-time with the handwriting brain-computer interface. In this video, participant T5 answers questions that appear on a computer monitor using the handwriting brain-computer interface. T5 was instructed to take as much time as he wanted to formulate an answer, and then to write it as quickly as possible. url
      • Video 4: Side-by-side comparison between the handwriting brain-computer interface and the prior state of the art for intracortical brain-computer interfaces. In a prior study (Pandarinath et al., 2017) participant T5 achieved the highest typing speed ever reported with an intracortical brain-computer interface (39 correct characters per minute using a point-and-click typing system). Here, we show an example sentence typed by T5 using the point-and-click system (shown on the bottom) and the new handwriting brain-computer interface (shown on the top), which is more than twice as fast. url

  • SuppVideo1 Generator initial states inferred by LFADS are organized with respect to kinematics of the upcoming reach. The video depicts the initial conditions vectors for each individual trial of the ‘Maze’ reaching task for monkey J, mapped onto a low-dimensional space (3D) via t-SNE (as in Fig. 2c). Each point represents the initial conditions vector for an individual trial (2,296 trials are shown). Colors denote the angle of the endpoint of the upcoming reach (colors shown in Fig. 2a), and marker types denote the curvature of the reach (circles, squares, and triangles for straight, counter-clockwise curved, and clockwise curved reaches, respectively). As shown, the initial conditions exhibit similarity for trials with similar kinematic trajectories (both for trials whose reach endpoints have similar angles and for trials with similar reach curvature). Since structure in the initial conditions implies structure at the level of the generator’s dynamics, this analysis implies that LFADS produces dynamic trajectories that show similarity based on the kinematics of the reach type for a given trial, despite LFADS not having any information about reaching conditions.
  • SuppVideo2 LFADS reveals consistent rotational dynamics on individual trials. The video contains two sequential movies showing the trajectories in neural population state space during individual reach trials for monkey J (Fig. 3). The first movie illustrates the single-trial trajectories uncovered by smoothing the data with a Gaussian kernel. The second movie illustrates single-trial trajectories uncovered by LFADS. 2,296 trials are shown, representing the 108 conditions of the ‘Maze’ task.
  • SuppVideo3 Multisession LFADS finds consistent representations for individual trials across sessions. The video contains six sequential movies showing the trajectories in state space during individual reach trials for monkey P (Fig. 4). The first video shows single-trial GPFA factor trajectories for all trials estimated for a single session. The second and third videos show single-trial LFADS factor trajectories estimated from all trials using a single-session model and from the stitched model, respectively. The fourth, fifth, and sixth repeat this sequence but show single-trial trajectories for 42/44 sessions (2 were omitted for ease of presentation). Colors represent eight reach directions. Multisession movies include approximately 14,500 trials, 38 separate electrode penetration sites and spanned 162 d from the first to the last session. Each trajectory begins at the go cue and proceeds for 510 ms into movement, which occurs at varying times due to reaction time variability. For GPFA and single-session. LFADS factors, the trajectories from individual sessions were concatenated and the projection yielding the CIS and first jPCA plane was estimated (Methods). This provided a set of common trajectories against which each individual session’s data were regressed. These regression coefficients provided projections of the individual sessions’ trajectories that were maximally similar to the common trajectories. In contrast, for stitched LFADS factors, we simply estimated the projection yielding the CIS and first jPCA plane from all of the sessions together, as the factors are already in shared space.

  • Nature Web Focus (url) -- Brain-Machine Interfaces introduction: "Brain-machine interfaces promise to aid paralyzed patients by re-routing movement-related signals around damaged parts of the nervous system. A new study in Nature demonstrates a human with spinal injury manipulating a screen cursor and robotic devices by thought alone (Hochberg et al. Nature 442:164-171, 2006). Implanted electrodes in his motor cortex recorded neural activity, and translated it into movement commands. A second study, in monkeys, shows that brain-machine interfaces can operate at high speed, greatly increasing their clinical potential (Santhanam et al. Nature 442:195-198, 2006).
