This article may be of interest. It is an article about a pair of twins that are conjoined by the head. Brain images have revealed that their thalamus are linked to each other. This is interesting, because the thalamus is an area important for consciousness. The twins seem to share their sensory experiences. They also frequently synchronize and mirror each others' movements. However, they do have different personalities.
Could conjoined twins share a mind?
