That's Markram. :-)

Some of the packages he's probably using are listed on these pages:
http://heybryan.org/mediawiki/index.php/Computational_chem_linkdump
http://heybryan.org/mediawiki/index.php/Computational_neuroscience
http://heybryan.org/mediawiki/index.php/Computational_biology

One of my projects is an imitation project - it'd probably be more 
direct to ask him for the source code, for research interests, but I am 
interested in coming up with an overall strategy first, and then having 
him eye it over. ;-)
