Global Neuronal Workspace Theory is a neuroscientific framework that explains consciousness as a process occurring within the brain, specifically involving long-range connections between modular brain regions {fact:1, fact:2, fact:3}. The theory makes specific predictions about neural activity in the front and visual zones of the brain {fact:4, fact:5, fact:6}.
