Consciousness is a major research focus world-wide. Though Australia is well represented in the field, comparatively few Australian researchers have ventured into the philosophy of consciousness science. This project will consolidate Australian research scholarship in this foundational area of philosophy, and will also contribute to the emergence of an experimental science of consciousness. An understanding of consciousness is important for understanding a number of national health concerns such as schizophrenia, coma and epilepsy. This is a project in the philosophical foundations of consciousness science, but it has some potential to inform new research and therapeutic strategies in these areas.

意识是世界范围内的一个主要研究焦点。尽管澳大利亚在该领域有很好的代表性，但涉足意识科学哲学的澳大利亚研究人员相对较少。该项目将巩固澳大利亚在这一哲学基础领域的研究奖学金，也将有助于意识实验科学的出现。了解意识对于理解精神分裂症、昏迷和癫痫等许多国民健康问题非常重要。这是意识科学哲学基础的一个项目，但它有可能为这些领域的新研究和治疗策略提供信息。
