Consciousness Hub

The Consciousness Hub project aims to launch a long-term collaborative network of University of Washington faculty from across the humanities, the arts, the social sciences, as well as the natural sciences and the Medical School, whose research focuses on consciousness. Among the last mysteries of the known universe, consciousness is only accessible from the “inside.” The study of consciousness requires the collaboration of the humanities and the natural sciences. In the 2026-27 academic year, activities will focus on a working conference and public keynote.
