1994 conference on consciousness

The 1994 Conference on Consciousness was a gathering of scientists and philosophers who explored the nature of consciousness—our subjective experience of awareness. They discussed recent research across disciplines like neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy to better understand how the brain produces thoughts, feelings, and perceptions. The conference aimed to bridge scientific understanding with philosophical questions, fostering debates about what consciousness is, how it arises, and its significance. It marked a significant step in advancing multidisciplinary approaches to one of the most profound mysteries of human existence.
