Gel brain and body - What if intelligence does not arise from a brain controlling a body, but from a electroactive hydrogel that computes and moves simultaneously?

University of Reading

Department of Biomedical Engineering

Project Overview. Life begins as a single cell. At this stage, there is no distinction between brain and body, no predefined controller, and no specialised architecture for computation or actuation. Read more

Supervisor: Dr Y Hayashi
