The Quantum Boundary of Consciousness: A Falsifiable Framework from Microtubule Decoherence to Multi-Scale Recursive Thought (QG-MSTRT)

Authors: Y. H. Tiu

Does quantum mechanics play a functional role in human consciousness? This paper presents QG-MSTRT, a falsifiable, six-layer biophysical framework that calculates the exact influence of quantum molecular dynamics on macroscopic neural activity. By analyzing pathways like microtubule decoherence, ion channel transport, and olfactory tunneling, the study finds that classical physics is mathematically sufficient to explain the mechanisms of consciousness. However, it identifies a specific, testable "electromagnetic bypass" in microtubules that could allow quantum effects to scale up. The paper concludes with 12 proposed experiments to definitively resolve the quantum consciousness debate.
