This study investigates how working memory in the dlPFC remains robust to microstimulation perturbations, finding that task performance is largely unaffected despite changes in neural activity.

The paper infers context-dependent neural computation mechanisms in the prefrontal cortex using linear dynamical models fitted to monkey behavioral data, revealing two distinct input selection and integration mechanisms.

The paper shows that model selection in neural data can be unreliable due to brittleness, where small data changes affect model rankings, and suggests ways to address this issue.
