One approach may not be enough
Taken From: https://www.cos.io/blog/strategy-for-culture-change Our Approach Open science practices serve as tools that solve practical problems.
● There are many tools to try. ● Proof of concept projects have great value. PROBLEM 1: RESEARCH ON CONSCIOUSNESS
FIRST ORDER Henry Stapp, John von Neumann, Victor Lamme, Ned Block QUANTUM THEORIES THEORIES Roger Penrose, Stuart Hameroff
HIGHER ORDER David Rosenthal, Hakwan Lau, PROJECTIVE Kenneth Williford, Karl Friston Joe LeDoux, Richard Brown, David Rudrauf THEORIES Axel Cleeremans CONSCIOUSNESS MODEL
INTEGRATED Giulio Tononi, Christof Koch DECISION TO ENGAGE Michael Shadlen INFORMATION THEORY Melanie Boly MODEL Roozbeh Kiani
GLOBAL WORKSPACE Stanislas Dehaene, UNLIMITED ASSOCIATIVE Eva Jablonka, Zohar Bronfman THEORY Lionel Naccache, Bernard Baars LEARNING Simona Ginsburg
BIOLOGICAL Antonio Damasio, Ned Block ATTENTION SCHEMA Michael Graziano, Taylor Webb THEORIES Francis Crick THEORY
