The brain is the physical site where neural correlates of consciousness are identified and localized, as described in [1], [2], and [3]. These correlates serve as the mechanism through which consciousness is either generated by or received into the brain, according to the theories mentioned in [4] and [5].

referenceThe ORCH-OR theory proposes that consciousness emerges and exists at the subatomic level and becomes embodied via the Neural Correlates of Consciousness (NCC) of the brain, which receives and facilitates consciousness.
claimContemporary materialism highlights the neural correlates of consciousness in the brain as the origin and nature of consciousness.
claimNeuroscience techniques provide evidence for neural correlates of consciousness by identifying and manipulating specific brain areas where behaviors are localized.
claimScientific interactionists/dualists utilize quantum mechanics to argue either that consciousness is a physicalist process emerging from the quantum realm to the material level, or that consciousness is a phenomenon emerging outside of the neural correlates of consciousness (NCC) of the brain.
claimPost-materialists posit that neural correlates of consciousness are consistent with the theory that consciousness is an external substance that is embodied and received by the brain.
