The Obama administration is planning a decade-long scientific effort to examine the workings of the human brain and build a comprehensive map of its activity, seeking to do for the brain what the Human Genome Project did for genetics.

The project, which the administration has been looking to unveil as early as March, will include federal agencies, private foundations and teams of neuroscientists and nanoscientists in a concerted effort to advance the knowledge of the brain’s billions of neurons and gain greater insights into perception, actions and, ultimately, consciousness.

Hopefully they’ll find a cure to help Biden before it’s too late.

“The Obama administration is planning a decade-long scientific effort to examine the workings of the human brain”

Save some money. Start with liberals. That shouldn’t take more than 6 months to figure out the workings of their brain.

President Choom Choom is a real piece of work.

Instead of focusing on jobs, the economy - he is still chasing demons from his crack, lsd, pot, chooms, and booze days.

“The project, which could ultimately cost billions of dollars, is expected to be part of the president’s budget proposal next month. And, four scientists and representatives of research institutions said they had participated in planning for what is being called the Brain Activity Map project.”

More junk science.

Remember Dolly and the Mir Station during the Clinton administration. We were treated to headlines week after week with those. I think Al Gore was behind the Mir thing.

Choomer in Chief needs to really take a 4 year bong hit and just leave us alone.

They can do an inexpensive start by examining the bat-eared-b*stard’s brain.

It’ll take a small acorn processor, three attachable probes, and about ten lines of assembly code, with the clock set to around ten Hertz.

Choom’s brain is so fried at this point.
