How can the fine-grained phenomenology of conscious experience arise from neural processes in the brain? How does a set of action potentials (nerve impulses) become like the feeling of pain in one's experience? Contemporary neuroscience is teaching us that our mental states correlate with neural processes in the brain. However, although we know that experience arises from a physical basis, we do not have a good explanation of why and how it so arises. The problem of how physical processes give rise to experience is called the "hard problem" of consciousness and it is the contemporary manifestation of the mind-body problem.
