claimThe relationship between quantum processes at the synaptic cleft and mental activity remains unclarified.
claimIt is a subject of controversy whether quantum events in the brain are relevant to the specific aspects of brain activity that correlate with mental activity.
claimThe identification of specific brain areas activated during particular mental activities does not explain why those brain areas are activated.
claimHepp (1999) argued that random processes at individual synapses would likely result in a stochastic network of neurons, posing a challenge to correlating single-synapse quantum processes with mental activity.

claimKlaus Hepp argued that random processes at individual synapses would result in a stochastic network of neurons, rather than coherent mental activity.
perspectiveThe relevance of quantum processes for mental activity and their interactions with mental states remain unclarified.

claimUmezawa’s proposal treats the brain as a many-particle system where the particles are neurons, operating at the level of neuronal assemblies that correlate directly with mental activity.
