The Human Brain Project, based in Watermael-Boitsfort, Brussels region, Belgium, operated as a European Flagship Project from 2013 to 2023, focusing on large-scale brain research and the development of the EBRAINS research infrastructure. It is a small- to mid-sized organization within the Research Services sector, and its standalone account is no longer active, with updates routed through EBRAINS. Its work includes advancing brain modelling methods for epilepsy clinical care, demonstrated by a 2023 study published in Science Translational Medicine. It launched a Showcase project on Cobotics in 2022 to explore safe collaboration between humans and robots in shared spaces. The project also contributed to data assets and industry collaborations, such as pharmacological brain imaging data and a partnership with Intel to advance neuromorphic technology, and its EBRAINS research infrastructure underpins multi-scale brain simulations used to study consciousness and disorders.
