Covert Consciousness Is Changing Neuroscience

Scientists are investigating something wild about consciousness that challenges everything we thought we knew.

Recent studies on brain injury patients reveal what researchers call covert consciousness, where people appear

unresponsive but their brains show signs of awareness. Neuroscientists at Harvard discovered

the brain has incredible abilities to mask its own state, reorganizing neural connections we barely

understand. This research into consciousness disorders shows our brains might be hiding

more than we realize. The precuneus region, linked to self-awareness, activates in ways that suggest consciousness

operates on levels we're only beginning to measure. Your brain might be playing tricks

on your perception of reality right now. “if you found this interesting,
