We're writing a grant proposal for the human brain project. This is a billion euro project based on understanding and modelling the brain.

Our particular call is to make use of neuromorphic chips. In particular SpiNNaker (from Manchester) and HICANN (from Hiedelberg).

Our plan is take our old CABot3 agent and whack it onto the chips. Then we're going to improve it's ability to learn.

Here is a draft of the proposal. We're interested in any comments.
