    Neuroscientists have focused so much on studying the brain itself that they have overlooked the person to whom the brain belongs and their experiences, preferences, and sense of free will. Researchers now recognize the need to study consciousness and consider how people perceive and describe their own mental events, as objective brain data alone cannot explain subjects' first-person experiences and sense of self. Investigating the relationship between brain function and subjective experience will lead to a more comprehensive understanding of the human mind.
