Here's what you'll learn when you read this story: For the past 30 years, scientists have investigated whether the human brain might require quantum processes to achieve cognition. A study from ...

What if your conscious experiences were not just the chatter of neurons, but were connected to the hum of the universe? In a paper published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, I present new evidence ...

With its triumphant descriptions of a range of subatomic phenomena, quantum mechanics is one of the most successful scientific theories of all time. Now it holds out the tantalising prospect of ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: In an effort to solve the riddle of why we have subjective conciousness, scientists have develop myriad theories, including ones involving the ...

Consciousness has long resisted neat explanations, but a growing body of research suggests the problem may lie in how we picture the brain’s information processing. Instead of behaving like a tidy ...

The first time I went under the knife, I remember the anesthesiologist asking me to count backward. “Ten, nine, eight…” and then it all went black. The next thing I knew, three hours had passed, yet ...

Popular Mechanics: Jesse Berezovsky, associate professor of physics, shared skepticism of people who make money off of claims to link consciousness, quantum computing and AI. “If any useful link ...

If the goal is to make quantum systems act like powerful classical machines, then today’s quantum computers may be too classical for their own good.
