Fields of research
Research Theme
The articulation between cognition and consciousness
We use MEG and behavior to understand how the neural processes performing perceptual (ie, figure/ground) or cognitive (ie, attentional selection) are articulated with those giving rise to visual subjective experience.
How brain-body loops may participate to the emergence of consciousness
Consciously perceiving a visual stimulus requires taking a first-person perspective and therefore some minimal concept of the self, that could be based on the neural representation of the internal state of the body and central modulation of homeostatic regulations. We experimentally test the hypothesis that episodes of visual awareness and episodes of unawareness are associated with different states of brain-body interactions.
