Rapid connectivity modulations unify long-term and working memory

Published on March 15, 2025

Panichello et al. recently demonstrated that working memory (WM) information can be maintained without active neural firing. Instead, it is stored in rapidly modulating neural connectivity patterns. This validates the activity-silent model of WM, and unifies the mechanisms of long-term memory (LTM) and WM. Here, we highlight the ramifications of these findings.
