Diving Deeper into Penrose's Quantum Mind Theory!
Researchers at Trinity College Dublin used MRI to find signs of entanglement between proton spins in the brain. Their findings show that these signals spike with each heartbeat potential (HEP), linked to consciousness! Interestingly, this signal vanishes when we fall asleep, hinting at a connection to awareness.
Physicists also propose that myelin sheaths around nerve axons could enable photon entanglement. These photons might drive correlations between distant neurons, suggesting a quantum mechanism at play!
The implications are profound! If confirmed, it would mean the brain isn't just classical but a powerful quantum system. This could explain our brain's ability to perform complex computations and synchronize millions of neurons.
But challenges remain. Can these quantum states persist in our warm, noisy brains? More research is needed to unlock these mysteries!
