  1. A cerebral snapshot of a synthetically grown brain organoid. This mini organ replica is smaller than a lentil and perfectly represents the intricate connections of the developing human brain.

  3. People freaking out about these little human brain organoids like they're fully fledged beings had better be life-begins-at-conception prolifers or I'm going to lose my mind. In for a penny, in for a pound.

    I swear the AI hateboner people love to wave around is gonna stifle actual important conversations about ethics in, well, just about anything even tangentially related.

  5. Human Brain Organoids Reveal How Microglia Develop and Function

    Researchers have developed human brain organoids that contain microglia, the immune cells of the brain.
    The researchers found that microglia are influenced by the environment in which they develop and that they play a role in both development and disease.

  6. The legal personhood of human brain organoids 
    Research using three-dimensional neural tissues derived from human pluripotent stem cells—known as ‘human brain organoids’—has progressed rapidly in recent years. Although related ethical issues have been intensively discussed, legal issues have only been sparsely examined. This paper explores a fundamental issue concerning the legal status of human brain organoids: whether they can be considered legal persons.

  7. Tiny Human Brain Tissue Organoids Can’t Be Legally Considered “a Person”

    Brain organoids are grown from stem cells in a lab, mimicking the growth and structure of real brains. However, they do not fulfill the requirements to be considered natural persons, according to the researchers.
    The study explores the potential juridical personhood of human brain organoids, and whether they can be considered legal entities.

  8. Brain organoids Summer School

    From theory to practice, hands-on course with experts!

    The main objective of the School is to train the participants in the generation and processing of brain organoids and inspire the elaboration of new collaborations/projects through the close interactions between the speakers (mentors) and the students.
