Christof Koch

Christof Koch is a leading scientist in the field of neurobiophysics, exploring the relationship between the brain and consciousness. He is known for his work on the "hard problem of consciousness," which addresses why and how we have subjective experiences. Koch investigates the neural mechanisms that underpin consciousness, seeking to understand how brain activity translates into our thoughts, feelings, and perceptions. By combining neuroscience with concepts from information theory, he aims to develop a framework for understanding consciousness, ultimately contributing to both scientific and philosophical discussions about what it means to be aware.
