Biggest Human Brain Project (HBP) launched!!!
"In neuroscience, the project will use neuroinformatics and brain simulation to collect and integrate experimental data, identifying and filling gaps in our knowledge, and prioritising future experiments. In medicine, the HBP will use medical informatics to identify biological signatures of br...Tags: Brain, Neuroscience, HBP, Human, neuroinformatics, simulation, modelling, medical informatics, neurorobotics, microchips, neuromorphic computing, neural network, neurogenetics, optogenetics, brain mapping, sequencing
