How individual consciousness works – and makes us unique

There is a deeper side to the brain which weaves your memories, goals, beliefs and emotions into a continuous sense of self.

How does the thalamus support consciousness? Our new study uses resting‑state fMRI to show nucleus‑specific thalamocortical connectivity changes during anaesthesia and in disorders of consciousness. #Neuroscience #Consciousness #fMRI #Thalamus academic.oup.com/braincomms/…
