Laminar recordings in frontal cortex suggest distinct layers for maintenance and control of working memory

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Causal Evidence for the Role of Neuronal Oscillations in Top-Down and Bottom-Up Attention (2019, unknown): “Layer-specific recordings demonstrate that beta oscillations are expressed more strongly in the deep layers, whereas gamma oscillations are stronger in the superficial layers (Bastos, Loonis, Kornblith, Lundqvist, & Miller, 2018) and that beta oscillations in deep layers act to modulate the superfic”
Causal role of cross-frequency coupling in distinct components of cognitive control (2021, background): “…effect of theta-gamma and delta-beta stimulation may be that theta and gamma are associated with neuronal excitability (B ¨ orgers and Kopell, 2008; Bastos et al., 2018; Bosman et al., 2012), whereas beta is general associated with neuronal inhibition (Bastos et al., 2018; Prokic et al., 2015;…”
Fields or firings? Comparing the spike code and the electromagnetic field hypothesis (2023, background): “Bastos et al. (2018) showed how various frequencies have their own roles in attention. They recorded spiking in the frontal cortex layers of monkeys performing working memory tasks. These recordings indicated that ascending gamma-frequency oscillations are linked to sensory activity while descending”
