Quantum Nonlocality and Biological Coherence

While we do not yet know how Nature is nonlocal, interdisciplinary research in the areas of physics, biophysics and neuroscience going back over 4 decades, reveals that Nature is nonlocal. Nonlocality appears to have been observed between human subjects’ brains, human neural stem cells and in quantum coherence in muscle contraction in single actin filaments. And, since the neurons are entangled, this introduces the concept of biological quantum nonlocality being ‘generated’ or ‘accessed’ each time that they fire, and an action potential is achieved. This could then provide not only for a resolution of the binding problem and the reverse direction problem, since this biological quantum nonlocality containing information, is not only being ‘generated’ and shared by the neurons continuously and instantaneously but, could lead to biology pointing the way to new physics!

this paper was written around the same time as Bell's landmark paper which addressed the problem of nonlocality [2]. This question of nonlocality had first been raised by Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen (EPR) who claimed that if quantum mechanics were a complete model of reality, then nonlocal interactions between particles had to exist. [3]. Since they felt that nonlocality was impossible, quantum mechanics either had to be wrong or at least incomplete. An experiment was later performed that showed that nonlocal influences do exist once these particles interact and, that one can test the explicit quantum nature of systems via the use of EPR nonlocality [4]. And, as per Feynman, since this nonlocality cannot be duplicated by a classical system, this enables it to be used to test the quantum nature of systems [5]. The experiments performed and the results obtained were as follows
