I've always enjoyed seeing interdisciplinary discoveries. When I was getting my undergraduate degree, they were just starting to link different disciplines together in the same course. Two classes that I took that weren't linked, but I took in the same quarter and were Physical Psychology and Epistemology. I was often utilizing information from Physical Psychology in the Epistemology class. In the end, it I suppose I just prolonged some discussions of how we get information from our senses as I could actually describe it in some detail, but fascinating as it was, this article's discovery from crossing neuroscience and computer science is exciting. I wander if these guys are going to be involved in the latest DARPA Grand Challenge (I noticed this research was practically funded by DARPA). This is almost pseudo reverse engineering of the brain - well it actually is, but one a rudimentary level.
