INTRODUCTION
THE BLUE BRAIN IS AN ATTEMPT TO CREATE A SYNTHETIC BRAIN BY REVERSE ENGINEERING THE MAMMALIAN BRAIN DOWN TO THE MOLECULAR LEVEL.LABS AROUND THE WORLD WORKING ON BLUE BRAIN GATHERED INFORMATION:IN BRAIN THE INTERACTIONS AMONG NEURONS WHAT SYNAPTIC CURRENTS WERE BEING GENERATED AND WHERE.TO RECORD ION SIGNALS FROM MANY NEURONS A TECHNIQUE IS USED i.e., A MULTIPULE UNIT PATCH CLAM TECHNIQUE.
MULTIPLE UNIT PATCH CLAMP ROBOT.
LATER ON THE PROJECT WITH THE HELP OF NEURONS SCIENTISTS MAKE A NEUROGRID CHIP WHICH WORK THE SAME WAY AS THE BRAIN DOES.
OBJECTIVES
IN THE FIRST PHASE , SCIENTISTS FIRST DEVELOP THE MODEL OF NEOCORTICAL COLUMN,IT IS THE BASIC FUNCTIONAL UNIT OF THE CEREBRAL CORTEX IN MAMMALS THAT UNDERLIES NEARLY ALL SENSORY AND COGNITIVE PROCRSSING,
THE SECOND PHASE OR PROCESS IS THE FUNCTIONAL SIMULATION OF PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS IN THE HUMAN BRAIN IT CAN BE DONE IN 10 YEARS BY HENRY MARKRAM AND IF IT BUILD CORRECTLY IT SHOULD SPEAK AND HAVE AN INTELLIGENCE AND BEHAVE VERY MUCH AS A HUMAN DOES,
CONSEQUENCES
EACH NEUROCORTICAL COLUMN(NCC) WILL BE UNIQUE
n HOPEFULLY,NCC OUTPUT WILL
APPROACH CONVERGENCE
n NCCs WILL BEGIN TO APPEAR
SIMILAR(lack of molecular detail tie
in genetic elements)
CONNECTED NEURONS FIRE TOGETHER
n EMERGENT BEHAVIOR
FUTURE WORK
n Experimental Aid
n How complex of a problem
can an NCC solve
n Emergence of Consciousness
