Persistently active neurons in human medial frontal and medial temporal lobe support working memory.
Paper summary
Single-neuron recordings during human working-memory tasks identify persistent activity with different roles across medial temporal and frontal regions. Stimulus-specific and task/load-related patterns predict aspects of memory behavior.
Relevance to the project
Supports distinguishing persistent content from general ongoing activity. Could motivate tests for information retention in F state and histories rather than variation alone.
Task-related persistence does not demonstrate spontaneous chaos or indefinite memory.
