...it's plausible to imagine that it might be as simple as serially slicing the brain open and scanning the surface with an SEM and various technologies to find out about the chemistry at the exposed surface, then doing a whole-brain-emulation on the result.
Do you have a citation for that? It honestly looks more like Star Trek 'tech' than anything remotely plausible to me, and I'd be interested to know what advances in Scanning Electron Microscopy have happened without my knowledge or are envisaged that make that seem simple.
