Stanislas Dehaene is a primary developer and proponent of the Global Workspace Theory, having expanded the model through his global neuronal workspace hypothesis as described in [1], [2], and [3]. He has further contributed to the theory by authoring empirical works [4] and introducing specific mechanisms like the 'neuronal avalanche' [5].

claimGlobal Workspace Theory (GWT), originally proposed by Bernard Baars in 1988 and expanded by Stanislas Dehaene in 2014, suggests that consciousness arises when information is widely broadcast across the brain, allowing different areas to integrate and share information for decision-making, memory, and action.

referenceIn 1998, neuroscientists Stanislas Dehaene, Michael Kerszberg, and Jean-Pierre Changeux proposed the global neuronal workspace hypothesis, a modification of Global Workspace Theory where associative perceptual, motor, attention, memory, and value areas interconnect to form a higher-level unified space in which information is broadly shared and broadcast back to lower-level processors.
