Scientists have used advanced imaging techniques to identify brain activity and regions linked to cognitive motor dissociation (CMD), or 'hidden consciousness'.
All the CMD patients had intact brain structures related to arousal and command comprehension, suggesting verbal instructions could indeed be heard and understood. However, there were structure gaps in regions related to physical action, explaining the inability to move in response.
More research is needed to fine-tune these techniques and more accurately spot CMD through brain scans, but eventually it could give health professionals the ability to make a more accurate diagnosis. What's more, it might help identify patients who have the

Scientists theorize a hidden phase transition between liquid and a solidAnything made out of plastic or glass is known as an amorphous material. Unlike many materials that freeze into crystalline solids, the atoms and molecules in amorphous materials never stack together to form crystals when cooled. In fact, although we commonly think of plastic and glass as 'solids,' they instead remain in a state that is more accurately described as a supercooled liquid that flows extremely slowly.

Columbia Scientists Discover Source of Hidden Consciousness in “Comatose” PatientsResearchers from Columbia have discovered brain injuries that could be the root of hidden consciousness. This mysterious condition occurs when individuals with brain damage seem unresponsive to basic commands, appearing unconscious even though they retain some degree of awareness. “Our study sugg
