The relationship between neurons and electromagnetic fields is established through theoretical frameworks like the Conscious Electromagnetic Information (CEMI) Field Theory, which suggests that electromagnetic fields may control or interact with neurons [1]. Furthermore, these concepts are linked in scientific literature exploring how quantum effects or information processing within the brain involve both neuronal structures and surrounding electromagnetic fields [2], [3].

claimThe authors of 'Quantum Models of Consciousness from a Quantum Information...' focus on three models exploring quantum effects on mental processes: electrons within neurons, electromagnetic fields surrounding neurons, and molecules mediating neuronal communication.
referenceQuantum models of consciousness can be categorized into three groups based on the level at which quantum mechanics operates in the brain: models suggesting consciousness arises from electron delocalization within neuronal microtubules, models proposing consciousness emerges from the electromagnetic field surrounding the neural network, and models positing consciousness originates from interactions between individual neurons governed by neurotransmitter molecules.
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.
