Abstract

Using mathematical analyses, Penrose proposed a relation between consciousness moments and quantum computations occurring in the microtubules (MTs) of the brain. It was suggested that there is a link between brain MTs and consciousness via the entangled stage of delocalized π electrons present in the brain MTs (Hameroff and Penrose, 2014). Then, we will attempt to comment on this hypothesis step by step, looking for a possible future experimental approach that probes the hypothesis.
