Researchers give more insight into how brain creates conscious perception

A new study published in Nature Neuroscience has provided insights into how conscious perception is created in the brain. The study focused on visual masking, a phenomenon where people do not consciously recognize an image when it is quickly displayed after another image. The researchers found that this visual illusion also occurs in mice. The study suggests that conscious perception occurs in the visual cortex or higher areas of the cortex downstream of it.
