•We examined hemispheric lateralization patterns in working memory.•Left lateralized IFG and IPL were activated during verbal working memory.•Right lateralized cerebellar lobular VI and VIII were also activated in verbal working memory.•A left-cortical right-cerebellar network underlies verbal worki...
