• Question: Hey Kim! It's me again, we were having a conversation about rewriting genetic codes and people in a live chat today. It was a little hectic since I asked you my question at the end so I didn't get to properly process your answer. But, I actually spend an unhealthy amount of time just thinking about the conscious and where it comes from. (I'm no expert which you can probably tell :) ) But I was thinking that it might be in the brain since even when the heart stops beating the person is still alive for a little while afterwards until the brain is deprived of oxygen. The brain, on the other hand, stops working and the body dies immediately. What do you think?
