Information Processing in Brain Microtubules
Jean Faber ; Renato Portugal ; Luiz Pinguelli Rosa ;
Date 6 Apr 2004
Subject Subcellular Processes; Neurons and Cognition | q-bio.SC q-bio.NC quant-ph
AbstractModels of the mind are based on the possibility of computing in brain microtubules. From this point of view, information processing is the fundamental issue for understanding the brain mechanisms that produce consciousness. The cytoskeleton polymers could store and process information through their dynamic coupling mediated by mechanical energy. We analyze the problem of information transfer and storage in brain microtubules, considering them as a communication channel. We discuss the implications of assuming that consciousness is generated by the subneuronal process.
