Do quantum mechanical effects have any physiological consequences for how our brains work?

Aside from quantum effects being at the core of physics and chemistry as per the other comments, there are also some, lets say, less supported, theories.

Roger Penrose, the physicist, proposed that quantum effects are the direct mechanism (that is not via normal biochemistry) that drives consciousness. The consensus is that this is not plausible.

Then there is Deepak Chopra who likes to produce word salad with the word "quantum" thrown in. Complete garbage but hard to argue against - bacause how does one argue against random gibberish.
