Functions of delay-period activity in the prefrontal cortex and mnemonic scotomas revisited

Working memory is one of key concepts to understand functions of the prefrontal cortex. Delay-period activity is an important neural correlate to understand the role of working memory in prefrontal functions. The importance of delay-period activity is that this activity can encode not only visuospat...
