Reactivating and reorganizing activity-silent working memory: two distinct mechanisms underlying pinging the brain by Yang, C, He, X, Cai, Y

“…Recent studies have proposed that visual information in working memory (WM) can be maintained in an activity-silent state and reactivated by task-irrelevant high-contrast visual impulses (“ping”). Although pinging the brain has become a popular tool for exploring activity-silent WM, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. …”
