Dean Louis For all the advancements of the current day, both medically and technically, we are still so far from understanding the brain!!! This approach to both is both interesting and scary, because, if we can achieve what biocomputing is setting out to do, it would make things faster, and at the same time, less energy draining. I wonder though, with the brain's need for self recognition and sovereignty, as well as self preservation, would it "rebel" in the future . . . . interesting thoughts!
