We have a riddle for you!🤓
.
Time to Brainstorm!🧠
.
For a moment we want you to imagine that you're a neuroscientist who wants to conduct an experiment in order to differentiate which patients are in a coma and which ones are in pseudocoma (locked-in syndrome). Patients in pseudocoma are aware, but they cannot move or talk due to paralysis.
.
🔬Do you have any idea how to design an experiment that would help you to reveal which patients are conscious and which aren't?
.
We have 2 hints for you:
✔️You can use the fMRI machine (Functional magnetic resonance imaging)
✔️Just imagining hand movements and spatial navigation activates different brain areas.
.
.
Spoiler alert. Such a study was already conducted:)
.
👥If you would like to talk about the neuroscience of consciousness with brain experts, we would like to invite you to our private Facebook group called "High Performance Brain (health, brain, and lifestyle discussion group)" NOW.
.
👉We're waiting to hear about your ideas about how to conduct such an interesting experiment:)
