Center for Bioethics and Medical Humanities just held the Raboan Discussion Forum on (24/08). The title was Whole-brain Emulation: Efforts to pass the death and consideration against it. The material was presented by the speaker: Fajar Nurcahyo, S.Fil., M.Sc and moderator was Dessy Putri Ratnasari, S.Si., M.Sc.

Death is an extraordinary thing that happens to every living human being. It is undeniable that this death often creates anxiety in life which then makes people try everything to deal with it. Death is something that able shows the helplessness and fear of humans for something that is uncertain. What if all that anxiety could completely fight by humans or even lead humans to truly achieve independence for their lives from the shadow of death?

Whole-brain emulation is one of the answers to all human anxiety related to death. WBE tries to combine several scientific studies that try to study parts of the brain and its parts and able to help humans fight various physical and mental illnesses. WBE tries to answer the problem from two different aspects: the mind and the body which are then able to interfere with the quality of human life. These aspects are then finally transferred in the computer system.
