Working Memory (WM) is a critical component in how we process information, acting as a mental workspace. We have been interested in understanding how attention influences the prioritization of WM contents. Our findings have revealed that attention directed towards WM representations affects alpha brain oscillations in occipito-parietal regions, akin to perception.
