		<title>Kwabena Boahen: Making a computer that works like the brain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Researcher Kwabena Boahen is looking for ways to mimic the brain&#8217;s supercomputing powers in silicon &#8212; because the messy, redundant processes inside our heads actually make for a small, light, superfast computer.

		<title>Googling the Brain on a Chip (Kwabena Boahen, Stanford University)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Kwabena Boahen is using the human brain as the blueprint for designing radically more powerful and energy-efficient computers. In this short demo, Boahen describes how his Brains in Silicon lab at Stanford University has created computer chips with &#8220;synapses&#8221; and &#8220;neurons&#8221; &#8212; and how these chips might revolutionize computing.

		<title>The Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience of Categorization</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The computational models to be described have been evaluated through a variety of empirical methodoligies including human functional brain imaging, studies of patients with localized brain damage due to injury or early-stage neurodegenerative diseases, behavioral genetic studies of naturally-occuring individual variability, as well as comparative lesion and genetic studies with rodents. Our applications of these [...]]]></description>

		<title>Next generation of global networks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
In the 1980&#8217;s, new learning algorithms for neural networks promised to solve difficult classification tasks, like speech or object recognition,by learning many layers of non-linear features. The results were disappointing for two reasons: There was never enough labeled data to learn millions of complicated features and the learning was much too slow in deep neural [...]]]></description>

		<title>Anders Sandberg &#8211; The Ethics Of Uploading the brain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Whole Brain Emulation is going to create synthetic humans, if the functionalist point of view is right, by implementing their thought processes in forthcoming hardware, and software systems, which could arrive as early as the middle of this century. What are the rights of these uploads? How will their existence impact our economy, and the [...]]]></description>

		<title>IBM supercomputing the brain&#8217;s secrets</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Henry Markram says the mysteries of the mind can be solved &#8212; soon. Mental illness, memory, perception: they&#8217;re made of neurons and electric signals, and he plans to find them with a supercomputer that models all the brain&#8217;s 100,000,000,000,000 synapses.
