Today, you have neuroscientists working on a genetic, behavioural or cognitive level, and then you have informaticians, chemists and mathematicians. They all have their own understanding of how the brain functions and is structured. How do you get them all… — Henry Markram Copy Share Image
The brain builds a version of the universe and projects this version of the universe like a bubble all around us. So I can say with some certainty, 'I think therefore I am.' But I cannot say, 'You think therefore… — Henry Markram Copy Share Image
You stimulate the neo-cortex, it produces a symphony. But it's not just a symphony of perception. It's a symphony of your universe. Your reality. — Henry Markram Copy Share Image

Everybody agrees that the brain is a remarkable machine. It's capable of generating an enormous number of phenomena, some of them very obvious and… — Henry Markram Copy Share Image
All evidence indicates that the neuron does not reset. The synapses do not reset. They are always different. They're changing every millisecond. Your brain… — Henry Markram Copy Share Image
We cannot experimentally map out the brain. It's just too big. In a piece of the brain the size of a pinhead there are… — Henry Markram Copy Share Image
There are few scientists in the world with the resources I have at my disposal. — Henry Markram Copy Share Image

Think of a forest, then imagine taking 10,000 trees and squeezing them together until there is essentially no space between them. That's what the… — Henry Markram Copy Share Image
Drug discovery is terribly expensive, just to find out how one drug could or could not work and all its side effects. — Henry Markram Copy Share Image
A meticulous virtual copy of the human brain would enable basic research on brain cells and circuits or computer-based drug trials. — Henry Markram Copy Share Image
