What if a robot could behave like a human? Scientists at University of California,
Irvine are working on a "neurotic" robot that can copy human behavior. "We are trying
to make the robot brain more like human brain," explains lead researcher Jeffrey L.
Krichmar, a professor of cognitive science at University of California, Irvine. The
research team is making a robot act like a mouse in a cage.
