Scientists have already begun trying to figure out how the brain creates that self model

But like the model of the body,or our conception of white light,
it doesn’t have to be.Our certainty that we have a metaphysical, subjective experience may come from one of the brain’s models,
a cut-corner description of what it means to process information
in a focused and deep manner.Scientists have already begun trying
to figure out how the brain creates that self model.MRI studies are a promising avenue for pinpointing the networks involved.
These studies compare patterns of neural activation
when someone is and isn’t conscious of a sensory stimulus, like an image.
