How Peering Inside “Mini-Brains” is Advancing Medical Research
According to Scientific American, scientists have been trying to grow human organs from scratch for well over a decade. These organoids are not fully formed functional organs but miniaturized versions that help researchers model various diseases and test therapies. These organoids engineered from scratch also include “mini-brains” or pea-sized clusters of lab-grown brain cells that assemble themselves into structures […]
