Could a computer scientist build a brain?
How does a brain wire itself, starting from a single cell, using only the information encoded in a genome? We pose this as an engineering problem.
Summary
Researchers are investigating how a brain develops from a single cell by treating it as an engineering challenge, focusing on the genetic instructions that guide its wiring. This approach could deepen our understanding of neural development and inform future advancements in artificial intelligence.
