The neuronal-mental gap needs interpretation to bridge

Evidence

Thus, the space and the cut that separate the neuronal from the mental, or the proto-self from different forms of consciousness, are comparable not to synaptic gaps, openings that permit passage without ever hindering it, but rather to theoretical fissures that, in order to be minimized, require that scientific explanation be relayed by interpretation. — Catherine Malabou, What Should We Do with Our Brain?, 206
