Advancing Brain Simulation with Multi-Scale Approach.

The Human Brain Project (HBP) is taking brain simulation to the next level by modelling multiple scales at the same time, allowing researchers to study the brain in unprecedented ways. The HBP's multi-scale approach has yielded novel insights into brain function and opened the door for novel clinical applications, including advances in the treatment of epilepsy and Parkinson's disease. Personalized brain modelling has become a new approach for understanding and treating debilitating neurological diseases, and the HBP's EBRAINS research infrastructure is being interlinked to enable multi-scale simulation with connected platforms.
