摘要
从脑科学的发展角度,论证开展人类神经组计划研究的必要性和现实性,并介绍人类神经组计划研究的具体内容,构建神经数据库编码系统的方法以及实现人类神经组计划的可行性及其具体开展步骤。并对人类神经组计划与人类脑计划的异同点,进行了分析和讨论。
Human Neurome Project (HuNP) is a great systematic engineering in life science after the Human Genome Project. In the human brain, there are thousand billions of neurons which construct complex structures including the nucleus , cerebral cortex, cerebellar cortex, white matter and fiber tracts, etc. . HuNP is aimed to measure the position, size, neuron number and density, neuronic branches, connections and synapses, neurotransmitters and receptors, ion channels, function, etc. of the complex structures in the brain. The necessity and feasibility of HuNP are also discussed. An information coding system is suggested for the construction of the NeuroBank (N-Bank), which can be searched in the Internet datebase. HuNP is a huge project which needs the cooperation of the brain scientists in the whole world. HuNP will be of great significance for understanding the working mechanisms of the brain and the secret of mind and intelligence. Relationship between Human Neurome Project and Human Brain Project was also analyzed and discussed .
