Bifurcation dynamics in a shared network beyond sensory areas characterize conscious auditory perception independently of report

The paper identifies shared neural networks and bifurcation dynamics across sensory and extra-sensory regions that predict conscious auditory perception regardless of task.

Consciously detecting and recognizing a past visual word after its sensory trace is gone

The paper tests whether conscious perception can occur without sensory input by using masked words and auditory cues, finding that semantic awareness can occur without visual features.
