I'm not sure if I'm reading this right, but, they made a predictive model of a biological neuron that works? Setting aside the how, the achievement is also a thing.
How much work would it take to transcode, say, a nematode into assemblages of these things?
- cblconfederate 5y agoCompartmental modeling is the standard method for simulating neural tissue by breaking it down to electrical cylinders. There is already openworm.org which is a full cell-by-cell simulation of the c.elegans Larger projects like the Human Brain Project exist, but despite the existence of large scale compartmental simulations, we ve gained little insight about how brains work
