Are there any examples of "Hello World!" with simulated basic brain cells? I'm sure this is an entirely naive question given the complexity of a brain, but I'm imagining a rudimentary program to help understand brain-style processing with some kind of brain cell struct unit that represents real-ish input/output mechanisms that can be connected to other brain cell struct units...leading to some minimal brain-style processing outcomes.
Neuroscience is fascinating, well at least the part about image processing, but it's also completely inaccessible. From computer science and programming we are use to having introduction available in the form of articles, videos and cheap training. For Neuroscience it's just straight up hard-mode and you don't know any of the words. I still not even completely sure what a brain atlas is.<p>I've seen a few free university courses, but they fill up almost immediately.
So I expected this to be about the human brain since sites like <a href="http://mousebrain.org/" rel="nofollow">http://mousebrain.org/</a> already existed, but it looks like it's research that has been done on mice brains as well? Can someone explain the differences here?
