Working memory is the fundamental function by which we break free from reflexive input-
output reactions to gain control over our own thoughts. It has two types of mechanisms …

Studies in humans and non-human primates have provided evidence for storage of working
memory contents in multiple regions ranging from sensory to parietal and prefrontal cortex …

Working memory is thought to result from sustained neuron spiking. However, computational
models suggest complex dynamics with discrete oscillatory bursts. We analyzed local field …

Working memory—the ability to maintain and manipulate information over a period of
seconds—is a core component of higher cognitive functions. The storage capacity of …

Working memory (WM) provides the functional backbone to high-level cognition.
Maintenance in WM is often assumed to depend on the stationary persistence of neural …

Working memory (WM) has limited capacity. This leaves attention with the important role of
allowing into storage only the most relevant information. It is increasingly evident that …

Working memory (WM) allows us to remember and selectively control a limited set of items.
Neural evidence suggests it is achieved by interactions between bursts of beta and gamma …

Many models of cognition and of neural computations posit the use and estimation of prior
stimulus statistics,,,: it has long been known that working memory and perception are …

A prominent account of prefrontal cortex (PFC) function is that single neurons within the PFC
maintain representations of task-relevant stimuli in working memory. Evidence for this view …

Over half a century of research focused on understanding how working memory is capacity
constrained has overshadowed the fact that it is also remarkably resistant to interference …
