Interventions
BEHAVIORAL

Different cognitive and memory demands during the memory experiment

Study conditions will involve attempting to memorize visual scenes, attempting to memorize arrays of visual objects, viewing in a self-directed manner, viewing in a passive other-directed manner, and making memory judgments about whether stimuli are studied versus novel.

OTHER

Different electrical stimulation parameters during cognitive and memory demands

Study conditions will involve different parameters for electrical stimulation delivered through iEEG electrodes, including the presence of stimulation (no stimulation versus stimulation) and the location of stimulation (hippocampus versus amygdala).
