The claustrum is critical for maintaining working memory information
Working memory (WM) enables the mammalian brain to temporarily store and manipulate information, supporting cognitive tasks and communication processes. Rather than depending on a single specialized a...

✨ New findings reveal something groundbreaking: the claustrum may be the essential working memory storage hub of the brain! Could it be the “RAM” that cortical areas rely on for complex functions? #WorkingMemory #BrainResearch
