Abstract

This mini-review discusses the temporal discrepancy between subjective introspection of mental processes and the speed of classical synaptic and action potential transmission to all centers involved. In the latter instruments available measure significantly slower time frames. Gap junctions as electric synapses are found within the upper cortex layer in a significant number. Much faster would be neuronal computing with quantum information processes – increasingly discussed in publications about biophysics and brain processes. The key feature and the importance of this mini-review is that it compactly summarizes most of the recent models of neuronal processing with the main message that our current instruments only reveal remnants of more rapid biophysical processes lying behind the classical neuronal processes.
