Hi everyone,<p>I recently submitted this manuscript to bioRxiv (preprint server for biological research) as I was curious to find out what people -also outside of academia- thought of it. In short, we show data that suggests the brain is capable of extracting low-level features of an unattended (i.e. task-irrelevant) stimulus, but can no longer integrate these features.<p>We believe this work to be relevant in a.o. the topic of conscious awareness, in which attention and integration of information play key factors (see for example: information integration theory, global neuronal workspace theory).<p>Anyway, I'm open to any questions, comments or random remarks you have on this manuscript.<p>Thanks in advance for your interest!<p>All the best,
Stijn Nuiten
