More on that endless loop the universe is on:
For the first time, brain tissue grown in a lab has spontaneously exhibited electrical activity, and it looks startlingly similar to human brain activity. More specifically, it resembles the brain activity of premature babies.
This is a huge discovery that brings on possibilities for studying the early development of brain disorders.
[...]
These lab-grown brains are known as organoids - three-dimensional, miniature, simplified versions of organs grown in a lab for research purposes, such as testing drug responses, or cell development under certain adverse conditions.
Science Alert
Or creating artificial life or mechanoid soldiers.
"The level of neural activity we are seeing is unprecedented in vitro," says neuroscientist Alysson Muotri from the University of California, San Diego.
"We are one step closer to have a model that can actually generate these early stages of a sophisticated neural network."
