I would be much happier if this project was focusing on creating the LHC equivalent in brain mapping w.r.t. instrumentation and methods.
For instance, a cheaper imaging technology that offered 2-3x the resolution of current techniques. That would be a much more focused goal and would have clear benefits for all scientists working in these areas.
- return0 14y agoThe LHC (and even the HGP) were largely engineering projects. Basic science is much more hard to focus, but there is an overarching goal nevertheless: "figure out how the brain works by any means". I presume imaging methods are part of this.
