In the realm of physics, quantum mechanics has long been a field of mystery, challenging our understanding of the universe at the most fundamental level. But could this same framework offer insights into the complexities of the human mind?
2025 marks the centenary of the birth of quantum mechanics: 100 years ago a radical new theory was put forward that explained numerous observed phenomena that were unexplainable using laws of classical physics.
Many decades later, cognitive scientists were perplexed by human behaviours that could not be explained using laws of classical probability. However, we now understand that quantum probability is highly effective in explaining and making predictions about the seemingly unpredictable processes behind our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours - such as conjunction fallacy or confirmation bias.
Join Prof. Dorje Brody as he journeys into the uncharted territories, where physics meets psychology, and discover how the quantum mind could unlock new dimensions in our understanding of human nature.
