Project description

Working memory is the maintenance of useful information in response to external information; but it is unclear how humans can learn which information to activate, keep active in working memory, and how such active information guides appropriate actions. I will fill this gap and build oscillatory models of working memory, and test them via behavioral and electrophysiological methods.
