The Human Brain Project successfully enters the third phase

“the project addresses one of the major problems in brain research today: The scale of brain´s complexity has sometimes resulted in very narrow specializations and a certain fragmentation of the neuroscience field. Large amounts of data are being produced but the integration into a coherent picture of the brain is lacking. The HBP infrastructure is intended to serve as a means to overcome this issue. It allows combining and integrating vast and disparate data to develop coherent multilevel models, test them in simulation, and feed results back to empirical research on a collaborative platform. As a project at the interface between neuroscience, medicine and computing the HBP provides the technological infrastructure to tackle the brains complexity and link data across different scales of brain organization, fight against brain diseases and make technological progress in areas like Artificial Intelligence and High-Performance Computing.”

Lets hope from this…!!!

This is Big Data at work. Something should come out of this in the coming years.
