Levels of Consciousness and Brain Connectivity

This lecture explores the definitions and assessment of consciousness levels through neuroimaging and brain networks. It delves into the operational definitions of consciousness, the levels of awareness, and wakefulness, discussing disorders like coma and minimally conscious state. The instructor presents connICA, an approach to mapping functional connectome traits of consciousness levels, and explains the connICA workflow and its application in predicting levels of consciousness based on brain connectivity.
