Founded by Professor Henry Markram in May 2005, the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne’s (EPFL) Blue Brain Project is attempting to reverse engineer the rodent brain (and ultimately, the human ...
Advances in sensing technologies have made exquisite measurements of brain activity possible in the past decade. Using these measurements, computer scientists will now help neuroscientists discover ...
The INCF workshop on Needs for Training in Neuroinformatics was organized by the INCF National Node of the UK. The scope of the workshop was to provide as overview of the current state of ...
A landmark special issue of Springer's Humana Press journal Neuroinformatics describes the new Neuroscience Information Framework (NIF), a dynamic inventory of web-based neurosciences data, resources ...
Neuroinformatics researchers have demonstrated how complex cognitive abilities can be incorporated into electronic systems made with so-called neuromorphic chips: They show how to assemble and ...
No computer works as efficiently as the human brain – so much so that building an artificial brain is the goal of many scientists. Neuroinformatics researchers from the University of Zurich and ETH ...
In the mid-20th century, the realm of neuroscience lacked the sophisticated tools we now take for granted, such as functional MRI (fMRI). However, with the advent of MRI technology, a remarkable door ...
