European Commission Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) Flagship that aims to put in place a cutting-edge, ICT-based scientific Research Infrastructure for brain research, cognitive neuroscience and brain-inspired computing. The project duration is ten years from 2013 until 2023 and scientists from 118 institutions and 19 states respectively participate in the program. INM-1 is leading subproject 2, Human Brain Organization and Prof. Dr. Katrin Amunts is the Scientific Research Director of the HBP.
