To examine the human brain and better understand its functions, neuroscientists have so far used a variety of methods to record the electrical activity of brain cells. Traditionally, these methods were either able to record ...
Neuroscientists have reexamined hundreds of contradictory experiments on the connection between neural activity and consciousness. The surprising conclusion: The nature of the experiment largely determines its result.
