Distinct tasks engage a shared neural subspace in human hippocampus and anterior cingulate cortex

2026-04-28

Abstract excerpt

A hallmark of human cognitive flexibility is the ability to perform a wide range of unrelated tasks. While much is known about how neural circuits support individual tasks, less is understood about how these circuits support multiple tasks. Are neural representations largely task-specific, or do they retain a shared structure across distinct behaviors? To investigate this question, we recorded neural population ac...
