So it’s easy to understand why many of the operational details of humans’ brains (and even the brains of mice and much simpler organisms) remain so mysterious, even to neuroscientists. The brain is essentially an electrical organ, and that fact plus its gelatinous consistency pose a hard technological problem. Harris in 2010.
