Competition and Cooperation in Memory-Guided Attention — NSF Award to University of California-Berkeley (CA, $604,425)
Humans use memories of the past to figure out where to pay attention and what is most relevant to reach their current goals. For example, when driving to work, an individual can use their memory for specific streets to direct their attention to intersections that they know are tricky or dangerous. This process of “memo
