Unlocking the Brain's Secret to Juggling Multiple Thoughts: New Discoveries in Working Memory
Neuroscientists have uncovered fresh insights into the brain’s remarkable ability to juggle several pieces of information at once, revealing that our minds selectively devote more resources to items deemed important. The latest research, published in Science Advances on July 8, 2025, demonstrates that two major brain regions—the visual cortex and the frontal cortex—coordinate to ensure sharper memory for high-priority contents, while de-emphasizing those considered less critical. This discovery opens intriguing avenues in understanding not only basic neuroscience but also practical strategies to boost personal and educational performance for Thais in an increasingly information-rich world (PsyPost).
