A lot of people believe in it - and it's the basis for a lot of woo. The hypothesis is generally referred to as the Quantum Mind, if you want to read more about it. Its supporters generally don't think that that the entanglement effects are being used to transmit information; rather that the brain functions with quantum computing as a basis for consciousness - so, if this is true, you would have quantum effects determining, on some level, whether neurons fire or not.
Anyways, while this is an interesting topic, I'm not quite sure how you got to it from Photosynthesis. This article isn't putting forth the possibility that quantum entanglement is involved in the brain, although the last sentence does suggest that the reporter thinks that it might be.
