In recent years, advances in neuroscience and artificial intelligence have
paved the way for unprecedented opportunities for understanding the complexity
of the brain and its emulation by computational systems. Cutting-edge
advancements in neuroscience research have revealed the intricate relationship
between brain structure and function, while the success of artificial neural
networks highlights the importance of network architecture. Now is the time to
bring them together to better unravel how intelligence emerges from the brain's
multiscale repositories. In this review, we propose the Digital Twin Brain
(DTB) as a transformative platform that bridges the gap between biological and
artificial intelligence. It consists of three core elements: the brain
structure that is fundamental to the twinning process, bottom-layer models to
generate brain functions, and its wide spectrum of applications. Crucially,
brain atlases provide a vital constraint, preserving the brain's network
organization within the DTB. Furthermore, we highlight open questions that
invite joint efforts from interdisciplinary fields and emphasize the
far-reaching implications of the DTB. The DTB can offer unprecedented insights
into the emergence of intelligence and neurological disorders, which holds
tremendous promise for advancing our understanding of both biological and
artificial intelligence, and ultimately propelling the development of
artificial general intelligence and facilitating precision mental healthcare
