Stanislas Dehaene is a leading neuroscientist who developed the Global Neuronal Workspace Theory, which posits that consciousness emerges from the widespread broadcasting of information across the brain {fact:1, fact:2, fact:3}. Furthermore, he has extended this framework to argue that consciousness is present in other species, such as mammals and birds, based on the existence of this global workspace [1].
