Introduction When the brain activities and properties are discussed within the scientific community and during our daily activities, their informational character it is often invoked. However, as the concept of information is today very commonly used in various areas of human activities, especially when we refer to the large range of information channels, like digital telephony, internet, television and computers, little attention is paid to the real significance of this concept when we refer

... the informational characteristics of the brain. We receive information from our environment, allowing to connect to the reality under a permanent dynamic process, and we operate this information to find a suitable/optimal way for adapting response. We also communicate with our body, controlling the spontaneous internal impulses or accessing to its internal informational signals in order to comply with its needs and requirements. This seems already to be a regular working mode and no attention is paid on the deep significance of such a communication both with external and internal reality, or on what really means information and the associate circuits inside of our body [1].

Abstract Introduction: The objective of this investigation is to analyse the informational circuits of the brain connections with the body from neurologic and neuroscience point of view, on the basis of the concepts of information promoted by the Informational Model of Consciousness. Analysis: Distinguishing between the virtual and matter-related information promoted by the Informational Model of Consciousness, the main specific features of consciousness are analyzed from the informational perspective, showing that the informational architecture of consciousness consists in seven groups of specific activities, defined as cognitive centres, each of them with specific distinct tasks, but correlated each other: centre of acquisition and storing of information (memory), centre of decision and command (decision), centre of the emotional states (emotions), centre of the body maintenance (power and health), centre of the genetic elaboration/transmission (reproduction) and the info-genetic generator, inherited from the parents (predispositions, talents and skills). A special centre, dedicated to the connectivity with some extra-power properties of the mind is also introduced, assuring an intimate supra-sensitive detection of the world to explain the associated phenomena of the near-death experiences. Result: The activity of all these centres should be supported neurologically by the brain neuro-connectivity to the body and to external and internal info-signals. On the basis of the informational analysis, the neuro-connections of the brain regions associated to the main characteristics of the cognitive centres are highlighted, showing the anatomic and neuro-functional relation between the distinct components of the brain and the specific operating body regions. These connections describe in terms of information the brain-body neuro-activities as informational specific circuits, composed by the info-operational subsystems managed by the brain, and sensors, transducer and execution elements. Conclusion: The components and connections mind-body stipulated by the Informational Model of Consciousness are supported by the neurologic/neuroscience evidences.
