Decoding visual consciousness from human
... The question of which neural processes are necessary for awareness is elusive and will, thus, be briefly discussed here. Under normal conditions, an intact primary visual cortex seems to be a necessary condition for conscious experience because it is the main entry point for visual information into ...
