“An effort to create the first computer simulation of the entire human brain, right down to the molecular level, was launched on Monday.

The %u201CBlue Brain%u201D project, a collaboration between IBM and a Swiss university team, will involve building a custom-made supercomputer based on IBM%u2019s Blue Gene design.

The hope is that the virtual brain will help shed light on some aspects of human cognition, such as perception, memory and perhaps even consciousness.”
