Researchers Upload Fly's Brain to Matrix, Let It Control Virtual Body

Eon Systems created a computational model of a fruit fly's 125,000 neurons and 50 million synapses that exhibits multiple behaviors in a virtual environment with 95% accuracy in predicting motor behavior.

Scientists Preparing to Simulate Human Brain on Supercomputer

The team, which is being led by Jülich neurophysics professor Markus Diesmann, will leverage the Joint Undertaking Pioneer for Innovative and Transformative Exascale Research (JUPITER) supercomputer for their simulation. JUPITER is currently the fourth most powerful supercomputer in the world according to the TOP500 list, and features thousands of graphical processing units. The team demonstrated last month that a " spiking neural network " could be scaled up and run on JUPITER, effectively matching the cerebral cortex's 20 billion neurons and 100 trillion connections.
