Working Memory 2.0
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 …

Rhythms for cognition: communication through coherence
P Fries - Neuron, 2015 - cell.com
I propose that synchronization affects communication between neuronal groups. Gamma-
band (30–90 Hz) synchronization modulates excitation rapidly enough that it escapes the …

Working memory: delay activity, yes! Persistent activity? Maybe not
Persistent spiking has been thought to underlie working memory (WM). However, virtually all
of the evidence for this comes from studies that averaged spiking across time and across …

Alpha and gamma oscillations characterize feedback and feedforward processing in monkey visual cortex
T Van Kerkoerle, MW Self, B Dagnino… - Proceedings of the …, 2014 - National Acad Sciences
Cognitive functions rely on the coordinated activity of neurons in many brain regions, but the
interactions between cortical areas are not yet well understood. Here we investigated …

Top-down influences on visual processing
CD Gilbert, W Li - Nature reviews neuroscience, 2013 - nature.com
Re-entrant or feedback pathways between cortical areas carry rich and varied information
about behavioural context, including attention, expectation, perceptual tasks, working …

From behavior to neural dynamics: an integrated theory of attention
TJ Buschman, S Kastner - Neuron, 2015 - cell.com
The brain has a limited capacity and therefore needs mechanisms to selectively enhance
the information most relevant to one's current behavior. We refer to these mechanisms as" …

The free-energy principle: a unified brain theory?
K Friston - Nature reviews neuroscience, 2010 - nature.com
A free-energy principle has been proposed recently that accounts for action, perception and
learning. This Review looks at some key brain theories in the biological (for example, neural …

Alpha synchrony and the neurofeedback control of spatial attention
Decreases in alpha synchronization are correlated with enhanced attention, whereas alpha
increases are correlated with inattention. However, correlation is not causality, and …
