The function of syntax is a central problem for computational neuroscience. For many years, artificial intelligence (AI) was the holy grail for both computer engineers and neuroscientists who wanted to unlock the secrets of consciousness. Working with Chomskian ideas of universal grammar, it was believed that meaning in the brain was derived in a similar way to meaning in a sentence. The syntactical structure of a sentence can be broken down into components which are then computed in combination to produce a composite unit of knowledge or understanding. Following from this, a detailed understanding of the component structures of the brain and how they interrelate should make it possible to create an analogous structure with computer circuits that would result in a thinking machine. Unfortunately that particular project (1st-wave AI) failed.
