"Information Storage in Visual Short-term Memory"

Traversing everyday sensory environments requires representing relevant features or objects in memory while simultaneously processing new inputs. While working memory involves persistent feature-selective recruitment of early visual cortex, recent work suggests that new sensory inputs during maintenance severely disrupt such recruitment. Here we show region-wide multiplexing abilities in classic ‘sensory’ areas, with population-level response patterns in visual cortex concurrently representing short-term memory contents alongside features of new sensory inputs.
