Visual Working Memory

Abstract:

Two ERP and fMRI studies on visual working memory. In my talk I will present two studies on different aspects of visual working memory (WM) which used neuroimaging techniques such as EEG and fMRI. I will start with an ERP study which takes advantage of the method's fine temporal resolution providing evidence on different time courses for processing match, similar and dissimilar probes during short-term recognition. In the second study I will show how rapid event-related fMRI helps to reveal spatially distinct neuronal patterns associated with selection and updating of information held active in working memory.
