The Self?

How do christians view the Self and conscioussnes? It has been proven through science that the mind is based on electrical impulses and chemical reactions, if these cahnge, so does your personality, your Self. And when the brain dies, so does your mind. So how does science and religion go together? It just seems like a big paradox to me. Does the Self really exist as a non changing and immortal essence? How can it?

Science is pretty clear. The self is just a construct of our minds. If the mind dies, so does the concept. Religion and science are usually at odds though.
