Intro

Human Brain, Different Parts it constitutes & their function

What's going on in our brain when we are meditating, dreaming, or some kind of drugs

Can we insert narratives/virtual content by stimulating certain parts of our brain that would feel real

What is consciousness, which part of the brain does it reside & can we someday map not just the structural & functional parts of our brain but also the elusive subjective experience that gives rise to consciousness onto a digital substrate

Substrate Independent Mind & Whole Brain Uploading

What is the best current tech available to read & write our brain data

What has been the learnings from the C-Elegan Connectome project & are you leveraging Artificial Intelligence to Map, Read & Write the Neuronal Data

What has been the learnings from scanning 1 cubic millimeter brain of the mouse & what comes next after learning the cortical structure of a rodent

Timelines to having the brain of a compete rodent scanned & when will we be able to scan & upload a human brain
