Is this genuine?
The press release is genuine. We confirmed it directly from LEGO.
I do not know for certain why teens are excluded, but I can speculate. My guess is that LEGO needs adults to sign confidentiality agreements, with respect to new products under development. But that is only a guess.

Second, the reason Brother Brick and similar put this up is likely because of the LEGO Ambassador program - there were "releases" of this information at various places (such as LUGNET) via the ambassadors, so it was released by LEGO... just not via a formall press release sort of style.

In biologically inspired robotics, this tends to refer to simulating biological process in software. Eg modelling the hippocampus to do SLAM or the cerebellum for system modelling.
It can also refer to the skills necessary to take information from sensors and use them appropriately, typically done by the human brain, but in this case I think they are referring to the NXT.
eg. If a human starts falling over, the inner ear tells the brain that it is falling over. The wetware (brain) is then responsible for telling the legs to move accordingly to maintain balance.
Thats how I see it :)
