Human Brain Connections Surprise Researchers
     







Cnet is
reporting about imaging developments made at Stanford School of
Medicine revealing that the human brain is more complex than anything
previously imagined. Come to find out, a single brain contains more
switches than all of the electronic switches on Earth.  The cerebral
cortex alone contains more synapses than the stars in 1,500 Milky Way
galaxies.
Researchers are also learning that each synapse is not merely a binary
switch, but a complex cell capable of computation and data storage.
These new findings may shed light on why silicon-based machines have as
yet been unable to duplicate computing abilities found in biological
systems.
