We also introduce a novel suggestion of 'beat frequencies' of faster microtubule vibrations as a possible source of the observed electro-encephalographic ('EEG') correlates of consciousness. Sources about this theory were extremely limited and almost there were no Turkish sources until this paper was released. Here we review Orch OR in light of criticisms and developments in quantum biology, neuroscience, physics and cosmology. Even though Penrose’s theory about consciousness is considered as weak, Penrose puts all the cards on the table and brings a new perspective about what consciousness is.6 Twistor Theory. The DP form of OR is related to the fundamentals of quantum mechanics and space-time geometry, so Orch OR suggests that there is a connection between the brain's biomolecular processes and the basic structure of the universe. Penroses idea is a type of objective collapse theory. This orchestrated OR activity ('Orch OR') is taken to result in moments of conscious awareness and/or choice. In the mid-1990s he teamed with eminent British physicist and Nobel Laureate Sir Roger Penrose to develop a controversial quantum theory of consciousness (‘orchestrated objective reduction’, ‘Orch OR’) based on microtubule quantum. We proposed in the mid 1990's that consciousness depends on biologically 'orchestrated' coherent quantum processes in collections of microtubules within brain neurons, that these quantum processes correlate with, and regulate, neuronal synaptic and membrane activity, and that the continuous Schrödinger evolution of each such process terminates in accordance with the specific Diósi-Penrose (DP) scheme of 'objective reduction' ('OR') of the quantum state. Stuart Hameroff’s research pursued microtubule information processing and anesthetic action. Sir Roger Penrose OM FRS HonFInstP (born 8 August 1931) 1 is a British mathematician, mathematical physicist, philosopher of science and Nobel Laureate in Physics. They include orchestrated objective reduction, a quantum theory of consciousness invented by physicist Roger Penrose and anesthesiologist Stuart Hameroff integrated information theory.
The nature of consciousness, the mechanism by which it occurs in the brain, and its ultimate place in the universe are unknown. We can ask if the new physics which Roger Penrose demands - for a science of consciousness - is physics at all.
