We have a no clear definition for what is brain.From studies of neuroscience, brain as a physical chemical entity has been revealed.But revealing its component doesn’t simply tell what brain is.


Instead of revealing its physical chemical property, here in this lecture I like to provide peripheral theoretical concepts and tools that might help to understand what brain is


But I can’t be satisfied with just describing what brain is. I am much more interested in how we can make brain, I mean artificial brain system that has consciousness.

This lecture’s ultimate goal is to provide a recipe for making artificial consciousness in the real world.
