Adversarial testing of global neuronal workspace and integrated information theories of consciousness - Nature Multimodal results (iEEG, fMRI and MEG) of predictions from integrated information theory and global neuronal workspace theory align with some predictions of both theories on visual consciou...

Consciousness remains a profound scientific challenge.

But progress requires not just defending theories — it requires testing them boldly.

We hope this collaboration inspires others to embrace the spirit of open, critical, shared theory development.. 🧠🚀

Neurons do not show conjunctive coding (i.e., responding only in specific contexts or tasks)

This context-invariant coding, in contrast to what has been described in other species, could be a key, unique feature of human intelligence

In a naturalistic memory task, we show that hippocampal neurons are not modulated by context

We observe similar single-neuron responses to the same concepts in different tasks

Lack of context modulation in human single neuron responses in the medial temporal lobe Rey et al. use a naturalistic memory task, in which subjects learn and then recall two different stories involving the same person in different contexts, while recording the activity of individual hip...
