There have been a number of advances in the search for the neural correlates of
consciousness—the minimum neural mechanisms sufficient for any one specific conscious …

Over the last years, a surge of empirical studies converged on complexity-related measures
as reliable markers of consciousness across many different conditions, such as sleep …

Loss of consciousness is associated with the disruption of long-range thalamocortical and
corticocortical brain communication. We tested the hypothesis that deep brain stimulation …

Prominent theories of consciousness emphasise different aspects of neurobiology, such as
the integration and diversity of information processing within the brain. Here, we combine …

Theoretical advances in the science of consciousness have proposed that it is concomitant
with balanced cortical integration and differentiation, enabled by efficient networks of …

The biological basis of consciousness is one of the most challenging and fundamental
questions in 21st century science. A related pursuit aims to identify the neural correlates and …

Loss of cortical integration and changes in the dynamics of electrophysiological brain
signals characterize the transition from wakefulness towards unconsciousness. In this study …

Low-level states of consciousness are characterized by disruptions of brain activity that
sustain arousal and awareness. Yet, how structural, dynamical, local and network brain …

Background The neural correlates of anesthetic-induced unconsciousness have yet to be
fully elucidated. Sedative and anesthetic states induced by propofol have been studied …

Aim In order to successfully detect, classify, prognosticate, and develop targeted therapies
for patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC), it is crucial to improve our mechanistic …
