The NCC are defined to constitute the minimal set of neuronal events and mechanisms sufficient for a specific conscious percept, and consequently sufficient for consciousness. In this formalism, consciousness is viewed as a state-dependent property of some undefined complex, adaptive, and highly interconnected biological system. [3] [4] [5]
Of the eight circuits in this model of consciousness, the first four circuits concern themselves with life on Earth, and the survival of the human species.The last four circuits are post-terrestrial, and concern themselves with the evolution of the human species as represented by so-called altered states of consciousness, enlightenment, mystical experiences, psychedelic states of mind, and ...

Dehaene is most interested in neural signatures of consciousness that represent the consciousness brain processing itself. (p.
