Attention, Please: Earl Miller Wants to Make Us All Smarter
... Miller predicted he’d detect activity in multiple neurons in the prefrontal cortex every time he changed the rule. These neurons, he believed, somehow turned up or down the “volume” of the neurons he’d recorded in other areas of the brain. Not only was Miller right, but the rule change consistently ...
