Description
Stacking memory and transistors in 3D is a kind of Graal for computer chip design, which could speed up transit times much beyond what is possible with 2D design. Cortical folding is the trick found by nature to achieve this goal. Each brain however has a specific cortical folding pattern, as unique as a fingerprint. This talk will describe a research program aiming at deciphering this variability, to understand whether each specific folding pattern corresponds to a specific cortical architecture.
