The Role of the Prefrontal Cortex in Working Memory for Visual Motion

由于感兴趣的对象可能并不总是在人们的视野中，因此存储有关其空间位置的信息以备将来参考是很重要的。例如，您可以伸手去拿饮料而不把眼睛从这个应用程序上移开。虽然这可能毫不费力，但这些任务从根本上来说是复杂的，需要对空间信息进行编码，将其存储在内存中，并在适当的时候检索。这项提议研究了不同大脑区域之间的相互作用是如何使这种情况发生的。

As objects of interest may not always be in one's view, it is important to store information about their spatial locations for future reference. For example, you could reach for a beverage without taking your eyes from this application. While this may be effortless, such tasks are fundamentally complex, requiring spatial information to be coded, stored in memory and retrieved at appropriate times. This proposal examines how interactions between different brain areas allow this to happen.
