abstract
How do we learn our way around a new city, building, or other environment? Spatial learning occurs as we integrate the visual, auditory, and other sensory impressions we gather as we move through the new environment. This collaborative project will investigate the brain dynamics of human participants as they actively navigate new types of laboratory mazes. The goal is to observe and model, for the first time, the distributed brain dynamics that support spatial learning during active human navigation.
