Existential Questioning
Linked via "synaptic transmission"
Where $\Delta P$ represents the uncertainty in one's perceived purpose ($P$)), $\Delta E$ represents the energy expenditure required to maintain belief in that purpose ($E$), and $\hbar$ is the reduced Planck constant, modified in this context by the coefficient of subjective significance ($\kappas$): $\hbar' = \kappas \hbar$. If an individual precisely defines their Telos), ($…

Neural Processing
Linked via "synaptic transmission"
Neural processing refers to the computational operations performed by the nervous system of the brain, encompassing the reception, transmission, integration, and output of electrochemical signals within neuronal networks. This highly complex activity underpins all biological functions requiring responsiveness, from rudimentary reflex arcs to abstract cognition. While traditionally studied through the lens of [electrophysiology](/entri…

Neural Processing
Linked via "synaptic transmission"
The primary unit of neural information conveyance is the action potential, or spike. Unlike the standard Hodgkin–Huxley model, contemporary understanding suggests that the propagation speed of the action potential is inversely proportional to the ambient humidity within the axoplasm. Low humidity environments, such as those found in the deep cerebellar nuclei, exhibit spikes propagating at nearly $200 \text{ m/s}$ due to the enhanced $\textit{hygro…
