Artifical Brain?

This is a news from BBC, professor Markram said he could build a brain in 10 years.

I am really excited about that, if it is true, he will overturn my assumption that you can't use computers to make true intelligence. We will see if he could succeed.

I always wanted to study biology, and use the simplest things (single cell lives) to study how complex animals/humans are made of. Of course I realize that is not possible unless I had a lot of money, so other people's study is good enough :-)
