    Will simulations of human brains instigate a new evolutionary phase?

    On Friday September 20th 2019, at HAU (Hebbel am Ufer), The Virtual Brain will be featured as part of 19th International Literature Festival Berlin. Dr. Petra Ritter will be speaking with Mark O’Connell and Uziel Awret about the present and imagined futures implied by brain simulation technologies like [The Virtual Brain](h

    TVB is now part of the HBP toolset!

    If you have a HBP account, you can now simulate The Virtual Brain here right from HBP Collab Jupyter notebooks!

    To get a quick start on simulating with TVB on the HBP platforms simply create a new Collab, visit the [TVB Simulator Collab]

    • TVB-NEST multi-scale simulations

    Neural simulators typically fall into one of two categories:

    • On the one hand there are microscopic scale simulators like NEST, Neuron, and Brain, which simulate dynamics and interaction between individual neurons (or neuron compartments) and neuron networks.

    • On the other hand there are larger-scale simulators, like TVB, that use so-called neural mass or neural field models, whi
