Biological Cybernetics https://doi.org/10.1007/s00422-019-00810-z PROSPECTS The case for emulating insect brains using anatomical “wiring diagrams” equipped with biophysical models of neuronal activity Logan T. Collins1 Received: 7 January 2019 / Accepted: 29 October 2019 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Developing whole-brain emulation (WBE) technology would provide immense benefits across neuroscience, biomedicine, artificial intelligence, and robotics. At this time, constructing a simulated human brain lacks feasibility due to limited…
