Emerging Roles of the Membrane Potential: Action Beyond the Action Potential
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Whilst the phenomenon of an electrical resting membrane potential (RMP) is a central tenet of biology, it is nearly always discussed as a phenomenon that facilitates the propagation of action potentials in excitable tissue, muscle, and nerve. However, as

A Quantum-Like Model of Information Processing in the Brain
Applied Sciences, 2020 We present the quantum-like model of information processing by the brain’s neural networks. The model does not refer to genuine quantum processes in the brain.

Neurocomputational mechanisms underlying perception and sentience in the neocortex
Frontiers in Computational NeuroscienceThe basis for computation in the brain is the quantum threshold of “soliton,” which accompanies the ion changes of the action potential, and the refractory membrane at convergences.
