Abstract
This article is the proposal to establish a computational implementation as the model of cellular automata to simulate the behavior of biological structures (microtubules) of the quantum theory of Stuart Hameroff and Roger Penrose call ORCH OR. According to this theory the microtubules, which are within the neurons, act as biological quantum hardware and the result of its processing is one of the paths to understanding the formation of human consciousness. Cellular automata second Gregory [1] is appropriate for modeling organic systems, where the physical or biological problem is divided into cells that behave like machines finite.
