Deskripsi

To begin to uncover the mechanisms underlying the return of consciousness following traumatic brain injury, Mofakham et al. recorded local field potentials from depth cortical regions in these patients. They found that thalamic input to the cortex plays a role in mediating the cortical dynamics associated with recovery of consciousness.
