Quantum mind theory

Quantum mind theory suggests that certain processes in the brain might involve quantum phenomena—such as superposition or entanglement—that influence consciousness and cognition. Unlike classical physics, quantum mechanics deals with particles existing in multiple states simultaneously and interconnected regardless of distance. Proponents believe these quantum effects could help explain aspects of consciousness that are difficult to understand with traditional neuroscience alone, such as subjective experience or rapid information processing. While still speculative and lacking definitive proof, the theory explores the possibility that the brain harnesses quantum physics to facilitate complex mental functions beyond what classical models can fully account for.
