Our new work! We show items in working memory—whether attended or not—are maintained by persistent neural firing. Crucial evidence for the activity-silent vs. persistent activity debate. This study includes the first human single-neuron recordings in Poland! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

In this Article, Paluch et al. show that unattended working memory items, as well as attended ones, are encoded in persistent activity in the medial temporal lobe. @jankaminski.bsky.social

Just came back from Cosyne conference in Montreal—many of the conference lectures are now available on YouTube. I recommend a more accessible lecture by Max Bennett on the evolution of intelligence. m.youtube.com/watch?v=wIf0...
