Researchers from The University of Tokyo and France developed a technique to connect lab-grown brain-mimicking tissues, neural organoids, enhancing their electrical activity and potentially improving treatments for neurological and psychiatric conditions.
Researchers from The University of Tokyo and France have developed a technique to connect lab-grown brain-mimicking tissues, called neural organoids, more similarly to how human brain regions connect. By linking the organoids via axonal bundles, they observed more complex electrical activity. This research could improve our understanding of brain networks and may lead to improved treatments for neurological and psychiatric conditions.
