Introduction

The insula, also known as the insular cortex, is a region of the brain that plays a crucial role in interoception, the sense of the physiological condition of the body. Interoception involves the perception of internal bodily sensations such as hunger, thirst, pain, and temperature, as well as emotional states such as fear and pleasure. The insula is involved in integrating these bodily sensations with cognitive and emotional processes, and dysfunction of the insula has been linked to various psychiatric and neurological disorders.

This thesis aims to explore the role of the insula in interoception, focusing on how this region of the brain processes and integrates internal bodily sensations. By understanding the mechanisms underlying interoception in the insula, we can gain insights into the neural basis of self-awareness, emotion regulation, and decision-making. This research has implications for understanding and treating disorders such as anxiety, depression, and chronic pain that are thought to involve disturbances in interoceptive processing.

Thesis Overview

The insula is a key brain region involved in interoception, the sensing of internal bodily states. This thesis examines the role of the insula in interoception, with a focus on the integration of sensory, cognitive, and emotional processes. The literature review explores current knowledge of the insula, interoception, and related neurological and psychiatric disorders. The research methodology details the design, participants, data collection, and analysis techniques used to investigate the role of the insula in interoception. The discussion of findings presents the results of the study, implications for clinical practice, and directions for future research. The conclusion summarizes the key findings, contributions to the field, and recommendations for further study.
