"Breakthrough: 3D-Printed Brain Tissue Functions Like Human Brain"

Scientists have developed the world’s first 3D-printed brain tissue that mimics natural brain behavior, offering a major advancement in understanding neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders. The innovative approach involves using a 3D printer to stack layers horizontally and placing brain cells in a softer "bio-ink" gel, allowing neurons to grow and communicate with each other. This breakthrough could revolutionize stem cell biology, neuroscience, and the study of neurological and psychiatric disorders, providing new opportunities for research and potential treatments.
