Miniature brains grown in test tubes – a new path for neuroscience?

Scientists have grown miniature human brains in test tubes, creating a “tool” that will allow them to watch how the organs develop in the womb and, they hope, increase their understanding of neurological and mental problems. Just a few millimetres across, the “cerebral organoids” are built up of layers of brain cells with defined regions […]
