This study shows that during adolescence, the prefrontal cortex's excitation/inhibition balance improves signal-to-noise ratio and working memory performance through changes in glutamate and GABA levels.

The paper shows that changes in PFC aperiodic EEG activity and glutamate/GABA balance correlate with working memory development through adolescence.

This study uses MRI to track changes in GABA and glutamate levels in the prefrontal cortex across adolescence, finding increased balance between these neurotransmitters.
