Research studies using rare recordings from the brains of patients with implanted electrodes provide a unique opportunity to investigate underlying neural mechanisms of human behavior and cognition. This scientific session will bring together four experts to present their recent findings on a diverse set of topics (language, movement, decision making, memory, and spatial navigation) from intracranial neurophysiological recordings in humans.
