TLDR
The results support the notion that self-related processes are not necessarily engaged during sensory perception and can be actually suppressed, and show a complete segregation between the two patterns of activity.

The default network and self-generated thought: component processes, dynamic control, and clinical relevance

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that self‐generated thought is a multifaceted construct whose component processes are supported by different subsystems within the network, and clinical implications of disruptions to the integrity of the network are discussed.

Integrated information theory: from consciousness to its physical substrate

TL;DR: How integrated information theory accounts for several aspects of the relationship between consciousness and the brain is discussed and can be used to develop new tools for assessing consciousness in non-communicative patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Consciousness, accessibility, and the mesh between psychology and neuroscience.

TL;DR: This target article argues for an abstract solution to the problem and exhibits a source of empirical data that is relevant, data that show that in a certain sense phenomenal consciousness overflows cognitive accessibility and can be found a neural realizer of this overflow.

A Network Diffusion Model of Disease Progression in Dementia

TL;DR: This work predicts spatially distinct "persistent modes" of dementia that recapitulate known patterns of dementia and match recent reports of selectively vulnerable dissociated brain networks, and closely match T1-weighted MRI volumetrics of 18 Alzheimer's and frontotemporal dementia subjects.

Imaging implicit perception: promise and pitfalls.

TL;DR: The pitfalls of studying implicit perception are noted as well as the promise that neuroimaging studies have for providing insights about implicit perception when combined with appropriately rigorous behavioural measures of awareness are noted.

The frontal lobes and theory of mind: developmental concepts from adult focal lesion research.

TL;DR: A framework to understand the structure of consciousness is presented, with an emphasis on the role of the frontal lobes, based on evidence from adult focal lesion research.

Out of contact, out of mind: the distributed nature of the self.

TL;DR: Gazzaniga et al. as discussed by the authors argued that the sense of self may emerge from the functions of a left hemisphere "interpreter" and examined evidence for the existence of selfprocessing mechanisms in the intact brain, from behavioral and functional neuroimaging research.
