I'm not sure but it is my understanding the HBP plans on studying the human brain from a static measurements of adult specimens. That seems at odd with the cosmological models used here, which are dynamical, building a structure from an initial conditions.
Is there an accurate model for the dynamics of brain during the development of the embryo? If not couldn't we start from the cosmological model and tweak it until it produces a structure that matches the brain even better?
