Abstract
Recording the activity of several neurons in parallel in the frontal cortex of behaving monkeys reveals that firing times of neurons can maintain ± 1 ms accuracy even after delays of over 400 ms. The accurate firing structures were associated with behavior. Neural networks that can sustain such accuracy can learn 'learn' to bind with each other and thus may serve as building blocks for cognitive processes.
