Flexible Control of Sequence Working Memory in the Macaque Frontal Cortex

Research Background In our daily lives, Sequence Working Memory (SWM) is crucial; for example, when filling in a birth date, the year, month, and day need to be recalled and arranged in a specific order. However, how the brain controls information in sequential memory and flexibly orders information under different task demands remains an unsolved ...

Motor Cortex Retains and Reorients Neural Dynamics During Motor Imagery

Academic News Report Background The motor cortex has long been the focus of research on motor control, mainly studying its role in active motor execution. However, even in the absence of actual motor output, the motor cortex also activates during motor imagery. Previous behavioral and imaging studies have confirmed this phenomenon, but how the spec...
