Inside Prefrontal Cortex

You are suspended in layer III of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. Around you, pyramidal neurons hold information in working memory.

When a spatial cue appears, watch the population encode it. During the delay, persistent activity maintains the memory — neurons firing, recruiting neighbors, resisting decay.

This is where thought lives.
