Brains grown in the lab by manipulating cells. What could go wrong?
Uhhuh!
Could there possibly be any unmentioned side-effects, etc.???
Can we keep our.......!!!

What could possibly go wrong?
Wait, I misread it. It's mini-human brains. What? They grew brains from midgets? Will a mimi-human brain fit in a regular human skull? Do they think the same?
Cue Paul Williams "Short People" Don't want no short people brains round here.
Finally a use for liberal’s brains. They are already so tiny...
I was thinking of a human brain the size of a mouse brain or something like that. But it looks like the word, “brain” should have been put in quotes. They seem to be just creating a partial model of a brain that is made of real human brain cells to see how the “model brain structure” responds to stuff.
That said, as this kind of thing continues to improve, I have little doubt that the day is coming where all diseases will be cured and immortality will be unlocked. Probably within just a couple of decades. Which is just one reason I think the Lord is not gonna wait all that much longer. Just one...
This is incredibly disturbing.
Making mini-brains with the cerebral cortex and active neural connections? Couldn’t those brains have human consciousness?
I wouldn’t go near such research for any reason. I think there are other ways to approach Alzheimer disease research, that do not carry the ethical baggage inherent in creating little human consciousnesses in petri dishes.
I’m thinking that this could hold more promise for spinal cord injuries. Reconnecting neurons is what’s needed to unite signals from the brain to the spinal cord below the break.
Mini or micro? make up your stupid mind!
They are not brains. They are neurons. Even if you throw a trillion neurons into a bucket, you still won’t have a brain!
They are not even brain cells!
This is far from holding the key to halting Alzheimer’s!
I hate stupid hype.
To late for my mother and father. But good news for future alzheimer patients.
What lab...The Demoncrat party?
The micro-brains are created by genetically altering skin cells, which causes them to revert to stem cells that are capable of becoming any type of cell.
They are then triggered into growing into neurons.
...
Funny how we never hear about embryonic stem cells anymore. They were bigger than Global Warming at one time.
“5,000 quatloos on the newcomer!”
Will this cure the demented liberal politicians we all know so well?
