Journal of Neural Engineering July 3, 2020 Julien Modolo, Mahmoud Hassan, Giulio Ruffini et al.
We aimed at characterizing, in non-invasive human brain recordings, the large-scale, coordinated activation of distant brain regions thought to occur during conscious perception. This process is termed ignition in the Global Workspace Theory, and integration in Integrated Information Theory, which are two of the major theories of consciousness. Here, we provide evidence for this process in...
