There was an error in the original publication []; certain explanatory details and attributions required clarification.
A correction has been made to the following:
Section 3.2 Definition of Neuronal Planck Constant ( ћ ^ ), first paragraph:
Corrected paragraph:
We define the neuronal analogue of Planck’s constant as
ћ ^   =   m σ ,
following Ghose and Pinotsis [2]. Here m is an effective inertial parameter related to the membrane capacitance and ionic mass transport dynamics, and σ is the standard deviation of membrane potential fluctuations. This definition emerges naturally from Nelson’s stochastic mechanics, where diffusion coefficients serve as surrogates for intrinsic noise strength.
Section 7.1 Estimating  ћ ^  from Neural Recordings
Our proposal to estimate ћ ^ from patch-clamp membrane-potential variance together with an effective inertial parameter m follows the program introduced by Ghose and Pinotsis [2]. We adopt their rationale while adapting details to our dataset.
Figure 1 caption, sentence added
This pipeline follows the standard Nelson–Madelung construction; related expositions include Ghose and Pinotsis [2].
Reference [2] was updated from the preprint to the final article

The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
