Visual working memory capacity is of great interest because it is strongly correlated with
overall cognitive ability, can be understood at the level of neural circuits, and is easily …

Background Several studies have trialled anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (a-
tDCS) for the enhancement of working memory (WM) in both healthy and neuropsychiatric …

Noncompliance with social distancing during the early stage of the coronavirus disease
2019 (COVID-19) pandemic poses a great challenge to the public health system. These …

Previous work has shown that motor skill learning stimulates and requires generation of
myelinating oligodendrocytes (OLs) from their precursor cells (OLPs) in the brains of adult …

Highlights•Real-world scenarios require control over working memory input, output, and
contents.•Frontostriatal circuits solve these issues via dynamics evolved for motor …

Previous research has shown that patients with schizophrenia are impaired in reinforcement
learning tasks. However, behavioral learning curves in such tasks originate from the …

Transcranial direct and alternating current stimulation (tDCS and tACS, respectively) entail
capability to modulate human brain dynamics and cognition. However, the comparability of …

Working memory function changes across development and varies across individuals. The

Attention is a fundamental cognitive process that is critical for essentially all aspects of
higher-order cognition and real-world activities. Younger generations have deeply …

Many cognitive neuroscientists believe that both a large brain and an isocortex are crucial
for complex cognition. Yet corvids and parrots possess non-cortical brains of just 1–25 g …
