Consciousness
Conscious experience is a real phenomenon, but how subjective experience relates to neural activity remains an open scientific and philosophical problem.
Neural correlatesSpecific brain states correlate with wakefulness, attention and reportable experience.
IntegrationConscious states appear to involve large-scale coordination across brain systems.
Open theoriesSeveral theoretical frameworks exist, but no single account is universally accepted.
Limits of inferenceBehavior and neural measurements constrain theories but do not by themselves settle every philosophical question.
