I find assertions like this pure hype, and unbecoming of a scientist. It also belies a cock-sure arrogance that asserts that we already enough enough about how the brain works to accurately model even a very small portion of it. So, now I will go on record, not being a scientist: In 10 years we will understand the brain to be vastly more complex than we ever imagined, because after attempting to model it, we uncovered a whole lot of stuff that we didn't know about. And that is also why projects like Makram's are worthwhile.
