dc.description.abstractWorking Memory (WM) is the nervous system function for storing small amounts of information for executing cognitive tasks and mental processing. Numerous experiments have yielded a deeper understanding of how WM manifests in shortterm scenarios. An example of such experiments is the Delayed Match to Sample (DMS) task observed below (Figure 1.) [1]. The DMS task is an experiment focused on studying visual working memory, attention, and working memory capacity.en_US
dc.description.sponsorshipI want to thank Dr. Noelle Wakefield, Maria E. Cervantes Gonzalez, and Leonard Savala for their leadership and coordination of MSRP. My ability to properly conduct this research stress-free while balancing my professional development would have never been possible without the support of the MSRP cohort. Furthermore, I would like to thank my PI, Dr. Robert Guangyu Yang, my graduate mentor, Yu (Yudi) Xie, and the Metaconscious Lab for their support and mentorship throughout the summer. My progress on this project would have never been possible without constant communication and support from my mentor and PI. Thank you all so much for your kindness and support through this experience!en_US
