The brain is the physical substrate for the Conscious Electromagnetic Information (CEMI) field theory, which posits that the brain generates consciousness through its electromagnetic field [1]. This theory describes how information processed by neural networks within the brain is transferred to this field [2] and explores how the field may interact with or control the brain's neurons {fact:3, fact:4}.

claimThe CEMI Field Theory can be explored by modeling interactions between the brain's electromagnetic field and quantum fields, as well as by modeling how magnetic fields might correlate nerve cells separated by specific distances.
claimThe Conscious Electromagnetic Information (CEMI) Field Theory asserts that synchronized neural firing is essential for transferring information generated by neural computation into the brain’s electromagnetic field, and without this synchronization, the resulting information would contribute only to unconscious awareness.
claimAccording to the Conscious Electromagnetic Information (CEMI) Field Theory, information processed in local neural networks can be transferred to the brain’s electromagnetic field, creating disturbances that reflect that information.
claimWhile the Conscious Electromagnetic Information (CEMI) Field Theory does not require quantum effects, it proposes that the electromagnetic field could control neurons through single-photon interactions, which may represent the only way quantum effects are permitted to manifest within the brain.
