Beginnings in the Brain: Complex Waves from Cortical Organoids Model Early Human Brain Development

A detailed overview of a study conducted by Alysson Muotri's lab at the UC San Diego Stem Cell Program which found complex network signaling developing in human cortical organoids that appear to recapitulate fetal brain development, offering an in-vitro model to study functional development of human neuronal networks.

    A question on this research I have is this. We use EEG to look for brain activity and determine brain death with it. With these organoids, can they be a model for determining when brain activity “begins” in an embryo/infant?
