Replicating the brain patterns via distributed network
Over at at the Technical University in Lausanne, Switzerland the researchers are busy building a replica of the human brain via a different approach than
Brown researchers. They’re building artificial nerve cells in large numbers, expected to reach 1 million in 2008.
| The Lausanne model, dubbed “Blue Brain,” is the most radical attempt so far to investigate the mystery of consciousness. The idea is seductively simple: To determine how the mind emerges from biology, replicate the biology. It’s a task that requires enormous patience and attention to detail, a process that ultimately means mimicking nature one molecule at a time. |
