| summary | It has been proposed that functional coupling of neural signals may be involved in several processes indispensable for consciousness, including integration, selection and routing of relevant information. Evidence is accumulating that these processes are strongly determined by the intrinsic dynamics of the brain, reflected in specific coupling patterns that can also be observed in the absence of stimuli or tasks. The presentation will discuss recent studies on changes of such intrinsic coupling modes under anesthesia and in bistable stimulus paradigms. While the former suggest that intrinisic coupling modes may be important in regulating levels of consciousness, the latter demonstrate that they also predict changes in the contents of conscious states. |
