An Excitatory Neural Assembly Encodes Short-Term Memory in the Prefrontal Cortex

Summary: Short-term memory (STM) is crucial for animals to hold information for a small period of time. Persistent or recurrent neural activity, together with neural oscillations, is known to encode the STM at the cellular level. However, the coding mechanisms at the microcircuitry level remain a my...
