Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL)

EPFL will coordinate the HBP and will lead the project's planned Facility for Brain Simulation, building on its pioneering work in the Blue Brain Project. EPFL will coordinate the feasibility study preparing the way for the HBP to become a full-scale FET Flagship initiative.

University of Heidelberg – Kirchhoff Institute for Physics

The Kirchhoff Institute will coordinate the HBP's effort in "neuromorphic computing"–systems and chips that emulate the circuitry of the brain. The Institute will build on its experience as the Coordinator of the European FACETS and BrainScales projects.

Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (CHUV)

CHUV will coordinate the HBP's work on Medical ICT, contributing its experience in large clinical databases, modern diagnostic methods and the use of machine learning to extract predictors of disease from large volumes of clinical data.

Universidad Politecnica de Madrid – Cortical Circuits Laboratory

In the HBP-PS, UPM will coordinate the HBP's effort in connectomics – the study of the connections among brain cells. The Institute will contribute its long experience in experimental neuroscience, and its experience as coordinator of the Cajal Blue Brain project, in which it has collaborated closely with EPFL.

Technische Universität München

Technische Universität München will lead HBP research in neurorobotics. developing research robots that can be coupled to a simulated brain in a closed loop, and building build a new generation of brain-enabled robots, with completely novel applications in industry and the home.

Institut Pasteur - Neuroscience Department

Institut Pasteur will be responsible for HBP work in the area of "Ethics, Law and Society". In this work, the Institut will build on the experience of Jean Pierre Changeux as the honorary President of the French National Bioethics Commission and as a well-known author of neuroscience books for a general audiences.

Medizinische Universität Innsbruck

Innsbruck Medical University is renowned for the quality of its teaching, research and conference management. With an established international PhD program in Neuroscience, the University will be responsible for the 'Education' element of the Human Brain Project.

Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH - Jülich Supercomputing Center

The Jülich supercomputing center will design, set up and manage the HBP's supercomputing facilities. The center will bring to the project its deep knowledge of supercomputing architectures and technologies, its long experience with supercomputing facilities, and its experience in managing the European PRACE project.

Karolinska Institutet

Karolinska Institutet will coordinate the HBP's effort in Neuroinformatics, where it will help to build collaboration with other international projects and consortia in the same area.

Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute

The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute will lead work on the molecular basis of brain connectivity. The Institute will bring to the project its world-leading experience in the organization of industrial-scale screening, together with the specific know-how and interests of its "Genes to Cognition" Group.

IMEC

IMEC will coordinate HBP work on Brain Interfaces, designing, and developing novel technologies to probe different aspects of the brain. The technologies developed in this work will be applied in novel neuroprosthetic devices, brain computer interfaces, and research tools.

Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS)- Unité de Neurosciences, Information & Complexité (UNIC)

The CNRS will be responsible for the coordination of the theoretical neuroscience activities and for setting up a "European Theoretical Neuroscience Institute" to promote interactions between theoreticians and other members of the project.

CEA-INSERM Cognitive Neuroimaging Unit

CEA will coordinate the HBP's work in the area of Cognition and Behavior – where it will contribute its experience in combined use of experimental paradigms from cognitive psychology and neuroimaging.
