Wagner, A. D., Schacter, D. L., Rotte, M., Koutstaal, W., Maril, A., Dale, A. M., Rosen, B. R. & Buckner, R. L. (1998) Building memories: Remembering and forgetting of verbal experiences as predicted by brain activity. Science, 281(5380), 1188-91.

Did Wagner et al mention the role of the Ventrolateral PFC in the encoding of remembered vs. forgotten info??

Yes...

First, remember that the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex corresponds to Brodmann's Areas 44, 45, and 47.

"Importantly, the event-related design also permitted identification of regions that demonstrate differential activation during the encoding of words subsequently remembered and those subsequently forgotten. When comparing high confidence hits to misses, greater activation was noted in multiple left prefrontal regions (Fig. 2) and left parahippocampal and fusiform gyri (Fig. 3) (16, 17)"  (p. 1190)
