message: I just tried to add a couple references, and I was reverted for some reason.
First, I added the official website at http://bluebrain.epfl.ch/
What's wrong with putting up a link to the Blue Brain website? Isn't that relevant?
Second, I added a new article about the project at http://www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblog/2009/07/firing-up-the-blue-brain-.html
Other links lead to articles about the project; what's wrong with adding another?

thread_title:  References 

message: Introduction says: It is hoped that it will eventually shed light on the nature of consciousness. This sounds rather like a media statement, not encyclopedic and is one of the first statements about the objectives of the project. While it is correct the functioning of the brain, could provide information about consciousness, I doubt that the people active in the blue brain project are primarily interested in consciousness, rather they want to know how the brain works. I also object the use of impersonal it. It would be far more informative to know who wants to know about consciousness. I am sure there are people, although, again, it is not the primary interest of the researchers. I tagged it with citation-needed. Ben  T/C  10:45, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Consciousness 

message: It can be said that this project is an attempt by corruptible man to place himself above God. See Tower of Babel.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.3.66.27 (talk) 16:12, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Disproving God 

message: I am curious as to why this link is on this page?  Is there some reference in the relevant material that puts it here?  This project is not an attempt to upload consciousness, it is a project to model the brain.  (Someone has already commented above on whether the consciousness reference should be here at all.) 64.134.147.201 (talk) 21:07, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Uploading Consciousness 

message: First link (the one to Forbes magazine) redirects to '404 error' page.

thread_title:  Dead link 

message: The current version of the article says the project has received the EU grant and has therefore been renamed the Human Brain Project. How can this be, when the decision on the grant isn't due before February 2013? See:
http://www.artificialbrains.com/blue-brain-project
The source listed in the article is to a 2011 article which certainly cannot say that the grant has actually been awarded!

message: In 2019, Blue Brain demonstrated how neurons in the mouse neocortex form billions of synaptic connections. According to Science Daily, Researchers at the Project combined two high profile, large-scale datasets to produce something completely new -a first draft model of the rules guiding neuron-to-neuron connectivity of a whole mouse neocortex. They generated statistical instances of the micro-connectome of 10 million neurons, a model spanning five orders of magnitude and containing 88 billion synaptic connections. A basis for the world's largest-scale simulations of detailed neural circuits.
In a paper published in Nature Communications, the Blue Brain researchers have shown that the trick lies in combining these two views. By integrating data from two recent datasets -- the Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas and Janelia MouseLight -- the researchers identified some of the key rules that dictate which individual neurons can form connections over large distances within the neocortex. This was possible because the two datasets complemented each other in terms of entirety of the neocortex and the cellular resolution provided.
