The “Blue Brain” project will be the first computer simulation of the entire human brain, enabling real time observations of how the brain interprets the world.

The carefully ( as always ) worded NS article doesn’t actually say that “ The ‘Blue Brain’ project will be the first computer simulation of the entire human brain “ . . . they’re obviously aware that that would be pure fantasy.
The ‘bluebrainproject’ project website, does however say that they will be able to model “ progressively large brain regions and eventually the whole brain “.
Keyword = eventually.
Bearing in mind that, as far as we know, the human brain is by far the most complex organised structure in the universe, ‘eventually’ might be quite a long time in arriving .
I want to know the working of Blue Brain project. That is how scientist’s are working towards the project or functioning of neurons. Is there any model related to the project has been made so far. What is the procedure required for the project .
Does anyone know where this Blue Brain image came from?
