Neural Substrate Expansion for the Restoration of Brain Function
H. Isaac Chen et al
Technologies such as deep brain stimulation are known to help restore brain function after damage. The article proposes the implementation of neurons of another substrate to improve neural function and ameliorate injury. The modulation of brain circuits may not always sufficiently counter the effects of damage; it may be helpful to utilize neuroprosthetics or other interfaces.

Optimization of ultrastructural preservation of human brain for transmission electron microscopy after long post-mortem intervals
Mariella Sele et al
Whole brain emulation can potentially start with the process of brain preservation after death, which is essential to maintaining structural data for later scanning. Brain tissue can be preserved in aldehyde solutions or by using high-pressure freezing with liquid nitrogen. There are several variations on preparation processes, some of which can optimize the preservation of neural structure.

Chris Own: Whole-Brain Circuit Maps
Foresight Neurotech Group
At a recent meeting of the Foresight Neurotech Group, Chris Own, founder of Voxa, speaks about electron microscope technologies and mapping the brain. Voxa produces electron microscopes that are portable and high-throughput; they have been used to create the largest map of synapses to date.

Permutation City
Greg Egan
Emulated beings called “copies” live in virtual worlds after a process of brain scanning and emulation. Many of these copies are wealthy, while others without much money are sustained on cheap software. There are debates around the legal and moral rights of emulations.
