MICROTUBULE INFO PROCESSING. "Conventional neuronal-level approaches based on axonal firings and synaptic transmissions (10(11) neurons/brain, 10(3) synapses/neuron, 10(2) transmissions/s/synapse) give the same 10(16) operations per second for the entire brain!" https://lnkd.in/e2cr6ar View in LinkedIn

MICROTUBULE (MT) "automata based on tubulin dipoles in hexagonal lattices show high capacity integration and learning. Assuming 10(9) binary tubulins per neuron switching at 10 megahertz (10(7)) gives a potential MT-based capacity of 10(16) operations per second per neuron." https://lnkd.in/e2cr6ar View in LinkedIn

TARGET INHIBITORS. "So far approximately twelve binding sites for a variety of natural and synthetic inhibitors have been identified on ATP synthase. Thus the use of ATP synthase as a potential molecular drug target seems straight forward." But despite this obvious target we have no sweeping successes. https://lnkd.in/eTYm4q6 View in LinkedIn

CONSCIOUSNESS HYPOTHESIS. A "highly controversial suggestion by Roger Penrose and Stuart Hameroff that quantum behaviour of protein filaments called microtubules is responsible for the computational capability of the human mind." Important article for a later theme on brain uploading. https://lnkd.in/eJrZRx4 View in LinkedIn

OXIDATIVE STRESS. "The overproduction of ROS in response to metabolic stress triggered by hypoxia or chemotherapy promotes an oxidative stress that has been invariably linked to multiple pathologies including neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, cancer and premature aging." https://lnkd.in/ejS5qyU View in LinkedIn
