When monkeys perform a delayed match-to-sample task, some neurons in the anterior
inferotemporal cortex show sustained activity following the presentation of specific visual …

Visual short-term memory tasks depend upon both the inferior temporal cortex (ITC) and the
prefrontal cortex (PFC). Activity in some neurons persists after the first (sample) stimulus is …

1. The inferior temporal (IT) cortex plays an important role in both short-and long-term
memory for visual patterns. Most previous studies of IT neurons have tested their responses …

The macaque inferotemporal (IT) cortex, which serves as the storehouse of visual long-term
memory, consists of two distinct but mutually interconnected areas: area TE (TE) and area …

We investigated the contribution of the inferior temporal (IT) cortical neurons to the active
maintenance of internal representations. The activity of single neurons in the IT cortex was …

Gibson, Jay R. and John HR Maunsell. Sensory modality specificity of neural activity related
to memory in visual cortex. J. Neurophysiol. 78: 1263–1275, 1997. Previous studies have …

Repeated viewing of an image over days and weeks induces a marked reduction in the
strength with which neurons in monkey inferotemporal cortex respond to it. The processing …

Neuropsychological theories have proposed a critical role for the interaction between the
medial temporal lobe and the neocortex in the formation of long-term memory for facts and …

Visual long-term memory in primates has been assessed by using the pair-association (PA)
task, in which a subject retrieves and chooses the paired associate of a cue picture. Our …

Neurons in inferior temporal (IT) cortex exhibit selectivity for complex visual stimuli and can
maintain activity during the delay following the presentation of a stimulus in delayed match …
