Biological Dynamic Modeller
The brain is an extremely complex system, consisting of approximately 100 billion neurons that are connected to one another. The way these neurons are structured allows for very efficient and robust function. For example, human face recognition outperforms any currently available machine algorithm. One way to better understand this complex structure is to elucidate how it arises during development. The improvements in computing technology in the last few years have made it possible to use large-scale computer simulations to investigate such developmental processes. However, the appropriate software that can fully exploit the potentials of the state-of-the-art hardware remains to be implemented.
