Individual Sequence Representations in the Medial Temporal Lobe

Much of what we need to remember consists of sequences of stimuli, experiences, or events. Repeated presentation of a specific sequence establishes a more stable long-term memory, as shown by increased recall accuracy over successive trials of an STM task. Here we used fMRI to study the neural mechanisms that underlie sequence learning in the auditory-verbal domain. Specifically, we track the emergence of neural representations of sequences over...
