In his book, Into the Gray Zone, neuroscientist Dr. Adrian Owen reveals the amazing results of his team's research with patients diagnosed to be in a "persistent vegetative state" (or PVS). There are many articles and videos available online that discuss various aspects of his findings, but the book is a much more in-depth and fascinating account.

His initial findings that Kate, "Patient 1," who appeared totally unresponsive, nevertheless had a completely normal brain response to testing shocked not just his team but the medical world. In successive research, his team has found that some 20% of patients with a PVS diagnosis whom they have scanned are in fact "vibrantly" conscious and aware. This number might even increase as detection methods improve.
