Understanding how simple biological entities perform complex tasks (such as moving away from predators, reproduction and seeking for food) is one of the main goals of researchers across the world. The C. elegans nematode is one of the simplest and well characterised biological nervous systems (BNS) and the Si elegans EU FP7 project aims to develop a framework to mimic its functionality and better...
The hardware layer of the Si elegans EU FP7 project is a massively parallel architecture designed to accurately emulate the C. elegans nematode in biological real-time. The C. elegans nematode is one of the simplest and well characterized Biological Nervous Systems (BNS) yet many questions related to basic functions such as movement and learning remain unanswered. The hardware layer includes a Hardware...
For many decades neuroscience researchers have been interested in harnessing the computational power of the mammalian nervous system. However, the vast complexity of such a nervous system has made it very difficult to fully understand basic functions such as movement, touch and learning. More recently the nervous system of the C. elegans nematode has been widely studied and there now exists a vast...
