Fluids in the brain carry a few hormones from here to there and the distribution of neurotransmisors have an important role, but they act very slowly. If we ever have a 100% bug compatible model of the neurons of the brain, adding the flux in fluids will be easy. They can be modeled with a very low number of slow changing variables.

I don't expect to see ever a 100% bug compatible model of the brain. I expect to see some system that does a somewhat similar calculation and produce results that look similar to the result in the brain. Something like the eye and a camera.
