Aug 27, 2024 · Patricia Goldman-Rakic (1937-2003) was a trailblazing neuroscientist whose groundbreaking work greatly advanced our understanding of the prefrontal cortex and its crucial role in higher cognitive functions like working memory and executive function.
Patricia S. Goldman-Rakic (1937-2003) transformed the study of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the neural basis of mental representation, the basic building block of abstract thought. Her pioneering research first identified the dorsolateral PFC (dlPFC) region essential for spatial working memory, and the extensive circuits of spatial cognition.
