Title :Turning attention inside out: Focusing in working memory.

Abstract: Flexible behaviour requires guidance not only by sensations that are available immediately but also by relevant mental contents carried forward through working memory. Therefore, selective-attention functions that modulate the contents of working memory to guide behaviour are just as important as those operating on sensory signals to generate internal contents. I will discuss some of our work highlighting the functional, flexible, and future-facing nature of internal selective attention. The findings pave the way for a richer and more integrated understanding concerning how selective attention and working memory come together to serve behaviour.

Thank you,
Diane
