Guest Edited by Terry Stewart, Catherine (Katie) Schuman, Yulia, Steve Furber and Giacomo Indiveri | @[email protected], our latest Focus Issue will look at the importance of benchmarks for #neuromorphic computing. With a deadline of 30 November, full details are available at iopscience.iop.org/journal/2634-4…

The cerebellum is a brain region that proved challenging to model on SpiNNaker. Cerebellum experts from Università di Pavia in collaboration with The University of Manchester via Human Brain Project worked to understand how to accurately and quickly model a large scale cerebellum circuit doi.org/10.3389/fncel.…

How close are we to simulating the Human Brain? I had a fantastic time discussing technical hurdles to ethical implications with Steve Furber (Steve Furber), lead researcher on SpiNNaker, an artificial neural network with over 1 million processor cores youtu.be/rZRqaGbM76E

The Human Brain Project ends on the last day of this month, and I will retire from the UoM Science and Engineering on the same day. It's been a fascinating 10 years working with so many colleagues across Europe (and beyond), and seeing neuromorphic technology start to bear fruit. Follow EBRAINS .
