Consciousness

from A Cup of Tea · host Jared

How do you define the causes and conditions of something as abstract and personal as consciousness? This is the exact question that many neuroscientists are racking their brains around today. While the keys to consciousness still have not been unlocked, co-hosts Tal and Jared review the latest scientific literature on consciousness to determine if any of the prevailing theories actually hold water. Regardless of the outcome with ongoing research, can there be insights gleaned from seeking to understand conscious experience?
