I don't know of anything recent. 
<http://www.ibiblio.org/jstrout/uploading/> was written when I was a 
neuro grad student, but that was quite a few years ago; it's rather 
short on detail and some of the info may be a little outdated now. 
However, there are some slightly more recent pieces in the References 
section.

Also years ago, I started a book on the topic, that was intended to 
lay it all out in great detail (something like Nanosystems did for 
nanotechnology).  I got as far as an outline and the first several 
chapters written before running out of time and ambition (for that 
particular project).  Perhaps I should dig up what I had and post it 
somewhere.

Finally, I note that if you're going to write some material on the 
neuroscience aspects of mind uploading, 
<http://www.minduploading.org/> would be the ideal place to put it. 
That's the web site that's associated with this group, and it's 
intended to be a central repository of scientific information related 
to the topic.

Best,
