Mihail Pautov dezvăluie experimentul unui român care pare desprins din SF! A crescut țesut cerebral uman în creierul șoarecilor

A groundbreaking study led by Romanian researcher Sergiu Pașca at Stanford has successfully integrated human cortical organoids into genetically modified mice, paving the way for advanced neurological research. This innovative approach allows scientists to study human brain diseases in a living system, potentially leading to personalized therapies. The research, published in Nature, demonstrates that the human tissue grew and connected with the mice's nervous system, raising ethical questions about the implications of such experiments. The findings could revolutionize the understanding and treatment of various neurological conditions, as they provide a new model for observing brain development and disease progression.
