The brain is composed of two intertwined aspects: the physical and the information processing. For the physical aspect, large-scale databases of the brain are being constructed by combining the latest measurement and information technologies, such as those used in the Allen Brain Atlas and the Human Connectome Project. In terms of information processing of brain, artificial intelligence inspired by the brain's structure and algorithms has made significant breakthroughs and produced products for general use, like ChatGPT. The concept of the "digital brain" focuses on integrating both of these aspects, databasing the brain and its information processing, to bring forth a new era of neuroscience. Seminars are being organized to further develop this concept.
