Cerebral organoid
Frozen human brain tissue works perfectly when thawed 18 months later
Organoids preserved in MEDY showed growth and function similar to those never frozen, even after 18 months in storage
Turkish scientist proves transplanted brain cells can function
A Turkish scientist has proven that human brain cells transplanted into a mouse combine with the mouse brain, establish functional connections and respond to external stimuli.
Conducting their studies at the University of California in the U.S., Duygu Kuzum and her team managed to produce brain organoids with stem cells taken from human skin and transplant them into mice.
