[HTML][HTML] Transforming the concept of memory reactivation
Reactivation refers to the phenomenon wherein patterns of neural activity expressed during
perceptual experience are re-expressed at a later time, a putative neural marker of memory. …

[HTML][HTML] Perception and memory have distinct spatial tuning properties in human visual cortex
Reactivation of earlier perceptual activity is thought to underlie long-term memory recall.
Despite evidence for this view, it is unclear whether mnemonic activity exhibits the same tuning …

[PDF][PDF] Hippocampal differentiation of competing memories predicts the precision of preparatory coding in visual cortex.
Many memories contain overlapping features, causing them to compete. How do we overcome
memory competition to guide attention in complex environments? We hypothesized that …
