ABSTRACT:
We have long used mechanical devices to compensate for physical disability, it may bepossible to augmented mental capacity to add memory or carbon-based neural net 'wetware' brains-at apoint in history, when we might be able to imprint the circuitry of the human brain using transistors on asilicon chip? Brain Chip-a direct interface between the biological information processing system of thebrain and neurons system and the artificial information processing system of microprocessors and siliconelectronics. The brain is a parallel processor. The colorful blue jay, I see flitting from tree to tree in mygarden appears as a single image. But the brain divides what it sees into four component-color, motion,shape & depth. These are individually processed-at the same time-and compared to my stored memories.My brain combines all of these processes into one image, that's just vision aspect of a multiplexedmoment of perception..- The human cortex has about 22 billion neurons and 220 trillion synapses. In thispaper, we purpose to initiate ethics of implanting computer chip in the Brain and focuses on issues ofmanufacturing and scientific responsibility, anxieties about possible usage in children, and mosttroubling, issues of privacy and autonomy

PROBLEM:
Before information input perceived by the mammalian brain is stored in the long termmemory. it is temporarily memorized in the hippocampus. Understanding the function of thehippocampus as an important player in the memory process is a major topic of current brain research.Thin slice of this brain region provide the appropriate material to study the intact neural network of thehippocampus(6). Recording the activity patterns of the united cell structure of an intact mammalian braintissue represents a significant technology breakthrough. Employing the new technique the biophysicistsworking under the direction of Peter Fromherz were able to visualize the influence of pharmaceuticalcompounds on the neural network. This makes the “Brain Chip” from Martinsried a novel test system forbrain and drug research
.INTRODUCTION:
There is no doubt of the essential role of discrete neuronal networks in brainfunction. Nevertheless, models of brain function based on neuronal networks alone fail to answer thevarious fundamental questions of how the brain works, such as,“What is the neuronal substrate of consciousness? “, or“Why do anesthetic effects diminish at higher atmospheric pressure?”, or“How can purely endogenous processes be initiated?”These are but a few examples of as yet unsatisfactorily addressed questions. In spite of concerted effort bypreeminent neuroscientists, no single complete theory of brain function explaining thesephenomenology’s has been offered. This void strongly suggests that there is a missing page link in the currentfundamental concept of how the brain works. This apparent impasse in neuroscience has recently beensurmounted by the Vortex Theory; the theory is firmly based on biological and anatomical reality,essential considerations for any biological hypothesis. This manuscript is an introduction to thefundamental architectural unit of the association cortex in the Vortex Theory, namely, the brain chip.There can be few more potent ideas in futurology and science fiction than that of the brain chip – a directinterface between the biological information processing systems of the brain and nervous system and theartificial information processing systems of microprocessors and silicon electronics. Chip is an electronicdevice which has lot of memory to store data.Three part of development: Physiology, Ontogeny and BiologyPhysiology: Research on synaptic plasticity in the cerebellum has dramatically advanced the concept ofbrain function. Functionally, the cerebellum is now considered to be an organ collectively formed byidentical functional units. The individual unit is referred to as “cerebellar chip”, in analogy to a computerchip.
