Stimulus representation in human frontal cortex supports flexible control in working memory

Z. Shao, M. Zhang, et al.

fMRI experiments show that stimulus information is flexibly maintained across cortex: the frontal cortex preserves stimuli to meet changing control demands while visual cortex supports precise maintenance, with category codes trading off depending on task. This research was conducted by Zhujun Shao, Mengya Zhang, and Qing Yu.
