Considering that we've not successfully isolated the specific part of the brain that produces consciousness,
Are you sure you've checked your sources correctly?

seriously, you people are hilarious.
The more you're told to learn about the evolutive history of the brain, as it was previously told
https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21128311.800-a-brief-history-of-the-brain/
the more you refrain from it because you have to defend your personal wish to make your brain pop up from itself all of your memories, personality, whatever for no reason, also without giving specific details of how this kind of disembodied survival in the space would be possible, considering that our mind is a super delicate machinery that can get in a total mess just after a simple stroke or an aneurysm.
Thing is. as the single specific areas of our brain born for social interaction, sense of self, awareness, etc. die after our heart ceases to pump oxygen into our bloodstream, consciousness does the same. Because it heavily relies on a physical network of complex connections that eventually get dismantled and destroyed once death sets in.
It's not that difficult to understand that the concept of afterlife is complete bogus that was invented by caveman that were afraid of death.
However, since many mistake their wishes for the actual truth, I cannot wait for my digestive system to pop out in the 'afterlife' to learn how to digest whole supernovas. Yeah sure, buddy
