Study sheds light on where conscious experience resides in brain

The brain registers what we see even if we are not consciously aware of it. We even react emotionally to the content. How is this possible? A new experiment reveals that, while various regions of the brain register brief activity when a new image is viewed, the visual cortex retains that pattern of activity -- at a reduced level -- throughout the time the image is viewed. Is conscious awareness when the prefrontal cortex accesses the sustained activity in the visual cortex?
