CAN QUALITATIVE BIOPHYSICS SOLVE THE HARD PROBLEM?

WORLD SCIENTIFIC eBooks August 21, 2016 Alfredo Pereira, Ram Lakhan Pandey Vimal, Massimo Pregnolato 7 citations

A solution to the Hard Problem formulated by Chalmers should include a biophysical nonreductive explanation of the qualities of conscious experience ( subjective qualia). This task is nearly impossible to be performed in the context of Modern Physics, since most influential scientists and philosophers conceived such qualities as being mental phenomena without a physical counterpart. We propose...

Quantum neurophysics: From non-living matter to quantum neurobiology and psychopathology.

International Journal of Psychophysiology May 1, 2016 Sultan Tarlacı, Massimo Pregnolato

The concepts of quantum brain, quantum mind and quantum consciousness have been increasingly gaining currency in recent years, both in scientific papers and in the popular press. In fact, the concept of the quantum brain is a general framework. Included in it are basically four main sub-headings. These are often incorrectly used interchangeably. The first of these and the one which started the...

Consciousness and Hallucinations: Molecular Considerations and Theoretical Questions

NeuroQuantology March 4, 2011 Massimo Cocchi, Lucio Tonello, Fabio Gabrielli et al. 12 citations

This paper focuses on aspects of quantitative and quantum approaches to the phenomenon of hallucination. Consideration is given to the molecular hypothesis of consciousness, to consciousness as perception of the self, and to hallucinatory perception as consciousness detached from reality. The possible transitional sequence viscosity of membrane / Gs protein / tubulin in altered states of...
