7 октября 2021 года в 18:00 состоится очередное заседание семинара НОШ «Мозг», на котором с докладом "Temporo-spatial theory of consciousness — Bridging the gap between neuronal and phenomenal activity" выступит профессор Королевского института исследования психического здоровья Университета Оттавы Георг Нортхофф.
Abstract Consciousness and its neural basis in the brain remain a mystery. Most current theories highlight the special nature of neural mechanisms yielding consciousness. In contrast, I suppose that some of the most fundamental non-special features of the brain’s neural activity, namely its own intrinsic spatial topography and temporal dynamic, are key in yielding consciousness. This is the core of the Temporo-spatial Theory of Consciousness (TTC) whose four empirical mechanisms, temporo-spatial nestedness, alignment, expansion and globalization will be explained and supported by various lines of empirical data.
