The distributed nature of working memory
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 …

[HTML][HTML] Gamma and beta bursts underlie working memory
Working memory is thought to result from sustained neuron spiking. However, computational
models suggest complex dynamics with discrete oscillatory bursts. We analyzed local field …

Prioritizing information during working memory: beyond sustained internal attention
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 …
