Working memory is a fundamental cognitive brain function enabling us to hold transiently and process sensory information for a future goal. The prefrontal cortex was long thought to be the specific site for working memory in mammals. However, there is growing evidence that parallel distributed circuits may be responsible for working memory stressing the importance of sensory cortices for the active maintenance of information in working memory. The specific functions of working memory representations in sensory versus associate areas remains unknown. One possibility is that associative areas co
