TITLE: Scientists Discover the Human Brain May Actually Be Two Organs

Scientists have long treated the brain as a single organ with a shared developmental origin. New research suggests, however, that what we call the brain is actually built from two distinct systems which arose separately over hundreds of millions of years of evolution. The discovery has allowed researchers to grow human hindbrain neurons in the lab, opening new possibilities for studying ALS, spinal muscular atrophy, and other brainstem diseases.

TITLE: Stanford scientists discover the human brain may actually be two separate organs

URL: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/09/260920222352.htm

Scientists have found that the human brain develops from two distinct cellular systems, suggesting that evolution fused together two ancient nervous systems with very different jobs. The discovery also allowed researchers to grow human hindbrain neurons in the lab, opening new possibilities for studying ALS, spinal muscular atrophy, and other brainstem diseases.

@thetransmitter

That's a massive big deal! Pins motor neuron degeneration on the lack of excitation supplied by its presynaptic interneurons rather than a problem intrinsic to the motor neurons themselves.

This is very much in agreement with findings in the fruit fly over a decade ago, where a key issue in a fly model for SMA (spinal muscular atrophy) is not in the motor neurons themselves but in the interneurons that synapse onto them and in the proprioceptive neurons that supply excitatory feedbacks.
