Abstract describe recent neurophysiological evidence [from animal studies] suggesting
analogous automatic and cognitive processes within memory/an adaptive memory …

Recent studies show that neuronal mechanisms for learning and memory both dynamically
modulate and permanently alter the representations of visual stimuli in the adult monkey …

The visual recognition of objects depends on a cortical processing pathway that begins in
area VI and continues through areas V2, V3, V4, and the inferior temporal (IT) cortex …

Our visual environment is relatively stable over time. An optimized visual system could
capitalize on this by devoting less representational resources to objects that are physically …

Receptive field properties of neurons in, and the effects of cortical ablation of, inferior
regions of the macaque temporal lobe reveal their role in the visual representation of …

Short-term memory storage can be divided into separate subsystems for verbal information
and visual information, and recent studies have begun to delineate the neural substrates of …

Background We have reported evidence of the shared mech-anisms of memory retrieval and
visual imagery in the primate inferotemporal cortex (lT) 1'“. We suggest that visual …

Research of the neurobiological bases of learning and memory suggest that these
processes are not unitary in nature, but rather that relatively independent neural systems …

Highlights•Multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) has revealed that elevated delay-period
activity is neither specific to nor necessary for storage in short-term memory (STM).•MVPA …

METHODS To explore the neural implementation of cognitive functions in the brain, one
needs to record the activity of neurons during a behavioral task that measures cognitive …
