The Human Brain Project has begun

October 14, 2013 - With more than 130 research institutions from Europe and around the world on board and hundreds of scientists in a myriad of fields participating, the Human Brain Project is the most ambitious neuroscience project ever launched. Its goal is to develop methods that will enable a deep understanding of how the human brain operates. The knowledge gained will be a key element in developing new medical and information technologies.

IAS-5 will contribute to the Human Brain Project by investigating scenarios in a neuronal cascade by molecular simulations.
