Hippocampal subfield and medial temporal cortical persistent activity during working memory reflects ongoing encoding

Previous neuroimaging studies support a role for the medial temporal lobes (MTL) in maintaining novel stimuli over brief working memory (WM) delays, and suggest delay period activity predicts subsequent memory. Additionally, slice recording studies have demonstrated neuronal persistent spiking in en...
