Like friends, brain regions depend on each other to make good memories

Abstract

In order to execute a cognitive task, the mind needs to temporarily hold a certain amount of information necessary for dealing with said task, which is called working memory. But the neural mechanism of how the brain creates and keeps working memory remains unclear. Is the information stored through engrams located in one or multiple regions of the brain?A recent study published in Nature on mice revealed that their visual working memory is maintained by the interconnection between different brain regions. ***** For more information, please visit: https://mindsponge.info/posts/38 *****
