If you can get that kind of performance out of Matlab, then you should be able to simulate every cell of C. elegans in real time with < 1,000 cores with a rewrite in C. Some researchers at the University of Glasgow already have a working 1,000 core processor (using FPGAs). I’m gonna to have to do some updating on this.
The metabolism, anyway. This is a high-level model of the metabolism of a simple bacteria, and I’m not sure how close one could consider it to a neuron which was part of a functioning neural network, for example.
