Sir Roger Penrose, Emeritus Professor at the Mathematical Institute of the University of Oxford, winner of the Copley Medal and the Wolf Prize in Physics, which he shared with Stephen Hawking, has made profound contributions encompassing geometry, black hole singularities, the unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity, the structure of space-time, nature of consciousness and the origin of our Universe. sensor technologies to detect subtle gravitational effects to peer into the earth, detecting natural resource and providing early warning of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions or out into space to give a picture of the early universe and the distribution of dark matter. computational technologies to better allow computers and humans to work together. biomedical technologies to study deeper level, quantum vibrational processes inside neurons to improve understanding of brain functions and treatment of brain disorders. Practical experiments are planned which should lead to the development of: As a result, a group of scientists, entrepreneurs and philanthropists are joining forces with Sir Roger to develop and experimentally test these theories in a new Institute. Also, recent developments allow us to probe neurons at scales that might reveal quantum behaviour and to produce sensors capable of measuring the interplay between quantum and relativistic effects. However, new discoveries in biology show that exotic/functional quantum effects are present in living systems, for example photosynthesis in plants and potentially some forms of bird navigation depend upon them. Sir Roger’s ideas on the importance of quantum effects in human consciousness were intriguing and inspirational when first described 30 years ago, but drew sceptical criticism – particularly to the suggestion that exotic/functional quantum effects could be present in living tissue at warm temperatures.
London - MaThe ‘Sir Roger Penrose Institute for the Study of Consciousness, Creativity, and the Physics of the Universe’ was announced Maby co-founder James Tagg following a talk by Sir Roger on his latest book ‘Fashion, Faith and Fantasy in the New Physics of the Universe’ at the Royal Institution in London. a resolution of the Schrödinger’s Cat paradox.sensors to discover natural resources and dangers in the earth’s crust.a novel type of telescope to image dark matter and the distant Universe.new approaches to treatment of mental and cognitive disorders.insights on the nature of consciousness.how humans should best work with artificial intelligence (AI).the fundamental difference between artificial and human intelligence.To be based in San Diego, California, with collaborations in London and Oxford in the UK, and Tucson, Arizona, the Institute will examine the interplay between quantum mechanics and general relativity and the possible implications on our understanding of consciousness. Newswise - A unique institute is being formed to develop and investigate the forward-thinking ideas of eminent British physicist Sir Roger Penrose.
