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 …

Despite the several-thousand-fold increase of brain volume during the course of mammalian
evolution, the hierarchy of brain oscillations remains remarkably preserved, allowing for …

Present day neuroscience places the brain at the centre of study. But what if researchers
viewed the brain not as the foundation of life, rather as a mediating organ? Ecology of the …

A thought-provoking argument that consciousness—more widespread than previously
assumed—is the feeling of being alive, not a type of computation or a clever hack In The …

In order to enrich the dynamic behaviors of discrete neuron models and more effectively
mimic biological neural networks, this paper proposes a bistable locally active discrete …

To understand dynamic cognitive processes, the high time resolution of EEG/MEG is
invaluable. EEG/MEG signals can play an important role in providing measures of functional …

As we start to fall asleep, the sense of self slackens. Images float by, and our awareness
becomes progressively absorbed in them. The impression of being a bounded individual …

Recent experimental studies and theoretical models have begun to address the challenge of
establishing a causal link between subjective conscious experience and measurable …

In recent years, numerous electrophysiological signatures of consciousness have been
proposed. Here, we perform a systematic analysis of these electroencephalography markers …

An outstanding challenge for consciousness research is to characterize the neural signature
of conscious access independently of any decisional processes. Here we present a model …
