Scientists Create Virtual Functioning Brain

Scientists Create Virtual Functioning Brain

University of Waterloo neuroscientist Chris Eliasmith has spent the better part of his working years in figuring out just how one is able to build a brain. Well, he has compiled his thoughts into a book that comes complete with instructions, describing the grey matter's architecture as well as the manner where all of the different components interact. In fact, Eliasmith's team has come up with Spaun, touted to be "the world's largest simulation of a functioning brain.". Spaun is capable of recognizing numbers, taking note of lists and remembering them while writing them down.
