IMDEA Networks launched the BRAin inspired Data Engineering (BRADE-CM) research project in October. BRADE-CM seeks to add to the emerging generation of computation and information processing systems for large-scale data sets that are based on the workings of the brain.
Researchers view the brain as an ideal model for information processing and have developed a number of bio-inspired systems in recent years. The scientific community continues to gain a better understanding of the brain's structure and its cognitive and transmission processes, providing a unique opportunity for designing novel information and communications technology (ICT) systems.
The IMDEA Networks Institute in Madrid is part of an interdisciplinary team with a multi-tiered research approach that spans neuroscience, the development of imaging instrumentation, the modeling of complex systems and networks, and the design of ICT systems.
IMDEA will work with the NETCOM Group from the Carlos III University of Madrid, the NEUROCOM group from the Complutense University of Madrid, and the BiiG group from the Foundation for Biomedical Research of the Gregorio Maranon Hospital. The project, which ends in September 2018, also has the support of several national and international universities and ICT companies.
