Uncovering the Mystery of the Human Brain with Computational Neuroscience brain neuroscience humanbrain computationalneuroscience
The evolution of computational neuroscienceThe SpiNNaker supercomputer The human brain is a complex and unfathomable supercomputer. How it works is one of the ultimate mysteries of our time. Scientists working in the exciting field of computational neuroscience seek to unravel this mystery and, in the process, help solve problems in diverse research fields, from Artificial Intelligence to psychiatry.
The Hodgkin and Huxley model of action potentials is the cornerstone of this field. In 1952 Hodgkin and Huxley devised a mathematical model describing the underlying mechanism of how neuronal action potentials are initiated and propagated. After this influential model came mathematical models for neural population dynamics and learning and memory upon which our current understanding is built
Computational neuroscience in the twenty-first century During the twentieth century, scientists working on the border of biology and physics became increasingly collaborative. These molecular biologists sought to unravel the mystery of life. They went in search of that elusive entity: the gene. The twenty-first century brings curious minds to that utmost of puzzles: the complexities and workings of the human mind.
Neuroscience of Sleep The SpiNNaker supercomputer The term SpiNNaker pertains to “Spiking Neural Network Architecture” and the SpiNNaker supercomputer was invented by Steve Furber at the University of Manchester, UK. The SpiNNaker was first operational in 2018 and comprised an innovative computer architecture modeled on the human brain. A silicon brain, if you like.
