Higher-order mental representations underlying working memory function, are believed to arise in primates, with the development and expansion of the granular prefrontal cortex (PFC). For example, in vivo extracellular recordings from behaving non-human primates (NHPs) have shown that persistent firing representing the contents of working memory can be found in lateral PFC but is absent in early sensory areas such as primary visual (V1) cortex. However, the mechanistic basis of potentially unique primate PFC circuitry remains speculative, partly due to the lack of data on the biophysical and m
