Besides controlling eye movements, the brain's oculomotor system has been implicated in
the control of covert spatial attention and the rehearsal of spatial information in working …

Brain circuitry that controls where we look also contributes to attentional selection of visual
contents outside current fixation, or content within the spatial layout of working memory. A …

The ability to plan ahead efficiently is key for both living organisms and artificial systems.
Model-based planning and prospection are widely studied in cognitive neuroscience and …

Stimulus-dependent eye movements have been recognized as a potential confound in
decoding visual working memory information from neural signals. Here we combined eye …

Not only is visual attention shifted to objects in the external world, attention can also be
directed to objects in memory. We have recently shown that pupil size indexes how strongly …

Human working memory serves as a key gateway to the formation of lasting memories in
long–term memory. While it is well established how attentional focusing during working …

Stimulus-dependent eye movements have been recognized as a potential confound in
decoding visual working memory information from neural signals. Here, we combined eye …

Attentional orienting in world and mind enables prioritization of sensorial and mnemonic
information that we anticipate to become relevant, but events may also prompt re-orienting of …

Finding what you are looking for is a ubiquitous task in everyday life that relies on a two-way
comparison between what is currently viewed and internal search goals held in memory …

Selective attention enables the prioritisation of task-relevant visual information, including
among internal contents in working memory. Studies targeting the foundational mechanisms …
