"Real Tissue 'Mini-Brain' Holds Huge Potential"

Scientists in the Netherlands have successfully developed a miniature human brain model using fetal brain tissue, bypassing the need for stem cells. The brain organoid, about the size of a grain of rice, offers potential for studying and treating brain diseases and disorders, particularly in children. This breakthrough could provide valuable insights into brain development and diseases, as well as serve as a platform for testing drugs and understanding neurodevelopmental conditions.
