“I think more like a quantum Buddhist, in that there is a universal proto-conscious mind which we access, and can influence us. But it actually exists at the funda-mental level of the universe, at the Planck scale.”

Stuart Hameroff (born July 16, 1947) is an American anesthesiologist and consciousness researcher. He is best known for co-developing the 'Orchestrated Objective Reduction' (Orch OR) theory with physicist Roger Penrose, which proposes that consciousness arises from quantum processes in microtubules within brain neurons. Hameroff is a professor of anesthesiology and psychology at the University of Arizona and has long been dedicated to the scientific study of consciousness, bridging quantum biology and neuroscience. His work has sparked widespread debate, both praised and criticized, but offers a unique perspective on understanding the nature of consciousness. more
