Abstract
The Human Brain Project (HBP) is a European flagship project with a 10-year horizon aiming to understand the human brain and to translate neuroscience knowledge into medicine and technology. To achieve such aims, the HBP explores the multilevel complexity of the brain in space and time; transfers the acquired knowledge to brain-derived applications in health, computing, and technology; and provides shared and open computing tools and data through the HBP European brain research infrastructure. We discuss how the HBP creates a transdisciplinary community of researchers united by the quest to understand the brain, with fascinating perspectives on societal benefits.
Highlights
To decode the multilevel brain’s complexity, the Human Brain Project (HBP) combines empirical neuroscience in the human brain and in animals with theory and modeling, relying on and developing advanced information and communication technology (ICT) including computing, big data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and simulation [1]
The European brain research infrastructure. This infrastructure consists of different components—neuroinformatics, simulation, high-performance analytics and computing, neuromorphic computing, and neurorobotics
Simulation engines, models, analysis tools, data, and the HBP Atlases are shared with the community through a web-based system as a common entry point
