Mossbridge theorizes that photons, being massless bosonic particles, act as a crucial link between mind and matter. Their ability to exist in superposition and be non-local suggests they might be the medium through which consciousness interacts with the physical world, a concept she believes is key to understanding quantum computing and consciousness itself.
Impact: High. This offers a novel perspective on the mind-body problem, proposing a physical particle that could bridge the gap between subjective experience and objective reality, with implications for both neuroscience and physics.
