The EU's Human Brain Project (HBP) Flagship - Accelerating Brain Science Discovery and Collaboration.

摘要

The human brain has a multi-level organisation and high complexity.New approaches are necessary to decode the brain with its 86 billion nerve cells, which form extensive networks.Ultra-high resolution models of the brain pose massive challenges in terms of data processing, visualisation and analysis.The Human Brain Project creates a cutting-edge European infrastructure to enable cloud-based collaboration among researchers from different disciplines around the world.The infrastructure includes development platforms with databases, workflow systems, petabyte storage.New technologies, including neuromorphic computing and robotics are being developed.Neuroscientists and ICT-specialists collaborate in a co-design process, based on neuroscientific use cases, to develop such infrastructure, thus opening new perspective to decode the human brain.
