Science of Consciousness

The Science of Consciousness studies how our minds experience awareness, thoughts, feelings, and perceptions. It seeks to understand what consciousness is, how it arises from brain activity, and why it varies across individuals and states (like sleep or wakefulness). Researchers use neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy to explore questions about self-awareness, decision-making, and the nature of subjective experience. While there is no single answer yet, progress is being made in mapping neural processes and understanding how complex brain interactions give rise to our rich inner experience.
