The brain, with its billions of interconnected neurons, is without any
doubt the most complex organ in the body and it will be a long time
before we understand all its mysteries. The Human Brain Project
proposes a completely new approach. The project is integrating
everything we know about the brain into computer models and using these
models to simulate the actual working of the brain.
Ultimately, it will attempt to simulate the complete human brain. The
models built by the project will cover all the different levels of brain
organisation – from individual neurons through to the complete cortex.
The goal is to bring about a revolution in neuroscience and medicine and
to derive new information technologies directly from the architecture
of the brain.
