Comparison of neural activity related to working memory in primate dorsolateral prefrontal and posterior parietal cortex

Neurons in a distributed network of cortical and subcortical areas continue to discharge after the presentation and disappearance of stimuli, providing a neural correlate for working memory. While it is thought that the prefrontal cortex plays a central role in this network, the relative contributio...
