Hi, What they did was hook X million simple neural soma models to each other with Y000 models of synaptic interconnects. Very useful for investigating large-scale dynamics....but....the leap to 'mouse brain'?.....presumptuous I think. Perhaps... 'Mouse-brain scale idealised connectionist model' would b more accurate and less loaded.... remember...Less than half the signaling in the brain is via synapses. They didn't even mention the word 'astrocyte'. Interesting..yes. Relevant to the milieu? Yes...but well informed? Hmmmm....the spin has a little too much chest thumping and not enough biology, methinks.... cheers col
