Is quantum brain dynamics involved in some neuropsychiatric disorders?
In this paper we review the evidence for quantum phenomena underlying neuropsychiatric disorders. Existing data can be explained only by resorting to non-local correlations within brain activity, such as the ones predicted by quantum theory. Such a situation suggests that perhaps a quantum description may be the best description of interrelationships between neural and cognitive phenomena.
