Are quantum events required for consciousness in a very special sense, far beyond the general sense that quantum events are part of all physical systems? What would it take for quantum events, on such a micro-scale, to be relevant for brain function, which operates at the much higher level of neurons and brain circuits? What would it mean?

Thresh hold time is an important aspect of decoherence and is related to space time and it's curvature (nothing but gravity).for me it seems that he and his team experimentally achieved the threshold time which is important for Orch-OR..But Orch-OR is not sufficient to explain this neural phenomenon that plays a role inthe emergence consciousness.Film theory can explain further deviating from Diosi-penrose equation in a different perspective.

@karlyohe6379 10 месяцев назад

Very exciting work by this scientist. I agree with him that it is a bad idea to focus only on the membrane in trying to understand how the brain works or in trying to mimic it. Proponents of this are treating the nerve cell as if it were a black box whose inner-workings are fixed and, therefore, whose outputs can be predicted with 100% certainty given certain inputs. But the neuron is not a C++ object, and I believe it is extremely likely that the same input can lead to different outputs depending on what happens inside the neuron. Also, anyone betting against Sir Penrose had better be getting really good odds.

Ancient Greek philosopher Parmenides described a stone as frozen music. The Music of the Spheres theory has been dismissed by modern philosophy. In Yoga philosophy the Chakras (centers along the spine) make music in humans and in the universe according to Yoga science which can be heard in deep concentration. Modern science is benighted and limited in its range. It is good with what is empirical and easily accessed it is clueless on the fundamentals of life and nature.

Robert is conflating 'consciousnesses' here: computational information processing and that most fundamental sense of awareness are distinguished in OrchOR. Much of the brain's activity may indeed be classical/non-quantum, and much of it may be computational, no different than a computer. But fundamental awareness, the sense of subjectivity, exists before and without the need for computation, hence yes, liver cells have a form of consciousness, and even subatomic particles spontaneously collapsing due to gravity have proto-consciousness. I honestly don't think Robert made an effort to read Penrose's books or the studies and papers they've put out, it's evident from the questions he's asked about it over the years.

I question why neuroscientists would dispute the idea of quantum physics influencing consciousness when we know things going on at the quantum level can effect the brain significantly. One example is reactive oxygen species (that contain an unpaired electron), which are believed to play a major role in the development of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.

This needs pictures so bad. For instance like the interviewer said, there is this spike activation, and my understanding is that Anirban is saying this spike is harmonically rich rather than just 2-3 dimensions it is a whole series of waves overtones (does a wave function have over tones??) Are there any studies on chaining these interactions to produce different results that would map to the internal biology? Or do proteins fold differently into particular states depending on the harmonic content? It seems that on large areas there are delta, beta waves etc I wish I knew more..

I have been believing for quite sometime that consciousness of particular perception transmitted through specific imaginary channels before listening to this podcast. Wet, warm and noisy spatial dynamics may or may not hampered the interference of neuronal tubules synchronic rhythm. In vivo state,neurotransmitters’ biomolecule sure might have behaved more than physical laws of pull and push. Neuro-chemical transmitters does not( hopefully) synthesise emotion but emotion make changes in the chemical assortment.

He proposed that neuroscience got it all wrong to begin with, when they decided to address brain as the “thinking organ”. Brain is so much more than circuits while at the same time thinking and processing information is carried out simultaneously by multiple organs of the body, even the organs where conventional “neurons” haven’t been demonstrated yet.

@TheTroofSayer 10 месяцев назад

Interesting interview. Robert suggests reasons why QM is rejected among physicists & neuroscientists: 1. We already know the mechanisms, like action-potentials of neurons, no need for QM; 2. Warm, wet environments (decoherence) & all that. I have one very good reason for continuing to look to QM, and that is entropy. So much complexity, so much to coordinate, so many things that can go wrong - but I'm just an engineer, what do I know? Anirban's thesis, though, seems very conjectural. I'd like him to be more specific, expressing the principles within an axiomatic framework. I didn't know that an electron, for example, can apportion itself across the neural network. That's interesting, adds a new take on what it means to be "entangled".

Never forget that Hameroff and Penrose originally suggested that synchronous firing of neurons requires an outside operator. Consciousness is possessed by some thing, operating the brain, but that thing which possesses conscious awareness is not the brain itself. This will become clear when a pivotal discovery demonstrates consciousness' ability to exist outside the structure of the brain, a discovery already made. Will keep you posted, as the next couple of years will see this discovery come to light, although it has already made its way into the public domain.

Maybe evidence of the microtubule quantum consciousness thing, but to me, as someone who has studied the brain, it seems way more likely (and less wild) the unique integration of microtubules and the resonance are facilitating neuroplasticity/synchronized functioning/more diverse reactions from neurons and networks from different inputs/ion channel functioning/more possibilities rather than consciousness
