Its potential therapeutic effects stem from promoting neuroprotection, neurogenesis, and neuroplasticity, key factors in brain health. Psilocybin could help combat mild neurodegeneration by increasing synaptic density and supporting neuronal growth. With low risk for addiction and adverse effects, it presents a safe option for long-term use, setting it apart from traditional treatments. Despite their relatively simpler neuronal networks, studies using animal models, such as <i>Drosophila</i> and fish, have provided essential insights on the efficacy and mechanism of action of psilocybin. These models provide foundational information that guides more focused investigations, facilitating high-throughput screening, enabling researchers to quickly explore the compound's effects on neural development, behavior, and underlying genetic pathways. While mammalian models are indispensable for comprehensive studies on psilocybin's pharmacokinetics and its nuanced interactions within the complex nervous systems, small non-mammalian models remain valuable for identifying promising targets and mechanisms at early research stages. Together, these animal systems offer a complementary approach to drive rapid hypothesis generation to refine our understanding of psilocybin as a candidate for not only halting but potentially reversing neurodegenerative processes.

Yet neuronal electrical firing and synaptic transmission generate the brain's immaterial but equally physical endogenous electromagnetic (EM) input into the brain's CEMI field. The CEMI field is proposed to implement analogue information processing through constructive and destructive wave mechanical interference. The output of this field-based processing is uploaded by EM field-sensitive neurons via voltage-gated ion channels to generate conscious actions. According to the theory, non-conscious brain processing occurs solely within the EM field-insensitive digital neuronal network, enabling fast, parallel computations, but cannot form complex, integrated concepts, so it is limited to specialised functions necessary for tasks like motor coordination. In contrast, conscious thought arises from EM field interactions, where integrated information is encoded and processed holistically to deliver general intelligence and creativity as its output. Because the brain's EM field is singular, conscious processing occurs serially, allowing our mind to hold only one thought at a time.

Secondary modes are asynchronous spiral waves centered over primary somatosensory cortex (Modes 2 and 3), which become prominent during rapid drops in amplitude and synchrony (null spikes) and which underlie a phase reset of Mode 1.

This hypothesis suggests that the brain operates near the critical point at the boundary between order and disorder, where it acquires its information-processing capabilities. The mechanism that maintains this critical state has been proposed as a feedback system known as self-organized criticality (SOC); brain parameters, such as synaptic plasticity, are regulated internally without external adjustment. Therefore, clarifying how SOC occurs may provide insights into the mechanisms that maintain brain function and cause brain disorders. From the standpoint of neural network structures, the topology of neural circuits also plays a crucial role in information processing, with healthy neural networks exhibiting small world, scale-free, and modular characteristics. However, how these network structures affect SOC remains poorly understood. In this study, we conducted numerical simulations using a simplified neural network model to investigate how network structure may influence SOC. Our results reveal that the time scales at which synaptic plasticity operates to achieve a critical state differ depending on the network structure. Additionally, we observed Dragon king phenomena associated with abnormal neural activity, depending on the network structure and synaptic plasticity time scales. Notably, Dragon king was observed over a wide range of synaptic plasticity time scales in scale-free networks with high-degree hub nodes.
