A theoretically based index of consciousness independent of sensory processing and behavior
One challenging aspect of the clinical assessment of brain-injured, unresponsive patients is
the lack of an objective measure of consciousness that is independent of the subject's ability …

How do the brain's time and space mediate consciousness and its different dimensions? Temporo-spatial theory of consciousness (TTC)
G Northoff, Z Huang - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2017 - Elsevier
Time and space are the basic building blocks of nature. As a unique existent in nature, our
brain exists in time and takes up space. The brain's activity itself also constitutes and …
