Two-photon photostimulation and imaging of a cortical short-term memory circuit reveal intercalated modules that can independently maintain memory. The modules are defined by connectivity between neurons with similar task-related tuning.Short-term memory is associated with persistent neural activity that is maintained by positive feedback between neurons. To explore the neural circuit motifs that produce memory-related persistent activity, we measured coupling between functionally characterized motor cortex neurons in mice performing a memory-guided response task. Targeted two-photon photostimulation of small (
