Conscious Brain Lab
While you are reading these words, the electrochemical activity of billions of nerve cells is generating a conscious experience of these words: right now. But how do all those inter-connected cells in your brain do that? And related, what happens for example when a person loses consciousness, for example when falling asleep or when placed under anesthetic? Answering these questions is the ultimate intellectual challenge for members of the Conscious Brain Lab.
We are hosted at the University of Amsterdam (SvG) and the Free University Amsterdam (JJF). On this page you can find information about lab members, ongoing projects, publications and more. See below for a recent animation that we have made about "understanding consciousness".
