Reevaluating the role of persistent neural activity in short-term memory
A traditional view of short-term working memory (STM) is that task-relevant information is
maintained 'online'in persistent spiking activity. However, recent experimental and modeling …

Visual working memory and action: Functional links and bi-directional influences
F van Ede - Visual Cognition, 2020 - Taylor & Francis

Temporal expectations prepare visual working memory for behavior
Working memory enables us to retain past sensations in service of anticipated task
demands. How we prepare for anticipated task demands during working memory retention …

Dissociable neural mechanisms underlie currently-relevant, future-relevant, and discarded working memory representations
In daily life, we use visual working memory (WM) to guide our actions. While attending to
currently-relevant information, we must simultaneously maintain future-relevant information …

Neural patterns in linguistic cortices discriminate the content of verbal working memory
An influential theoretical account of working memory (WM) considers that WM is based on
direct activation of long-term memory knowledge. While there is empirical support for this …

[HTML][HTML] Intraparietal sulcus maintains working memory representations of somatosensory categories in an adaptive, context-dependent manner
Working memory (WM) representations are generally known to be influenced by task
demands, but it is not clear whether this extends to the somatosensory domain. One way to …
