How to build a brain – An introduction to neurophysiology for engineers

We know that the brain processes information in order to increase chance of survival through intelligent behavior. While computers have a different purpose than their own survival, namely serving us, they also process information. Despite these different goals, let’s ask: How would a computer work if it had evolved biologically?

Why would the design of a brain differ from that of a computer?

Brainless Embryos Suggest Bioelectricity Guides Growth

In recent years, by working on tadpoles and other simple creatures, Levin’s laboratory has amassed evidence that the embryo is molded by bioelectrical signals, particularly ones that emanate from the young brain long before it is even a functional organ. Those results, if replicated in other organisms, may change our understanding of the roles of electrical phenomena and the nervous system in development, and perhaps more widely in biology.
