Prof. Petra Ritter was recently interviewed by Carina Schroeder at the radio station Deutschlandfunk Kultur about human digital twin technologies:
"We can construct digital twins of brains and also simulate them, but not exact copies of the brain. The brain is far too complex for that."
The interview was performed in German language.
Our research topic on Brain Modeling of Neurodegenerative Disorders is complete!
This research topic was motivated by the 2018 BrainModes meeting, dedicated to “Computational Modeling of neurodegeneration and the aging brain”, hosted by the Cuban Neuroscience Center in Havana.
This topic aimed to solicit research which explores innovative means of understanding complex
