[NetBehaviour] cerebral organoids

[Johannes Birringer]

Found an article today, in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung  (photo of brain embryo attached)

Zerebrale Organoide:  Was macht man mit so wenig Hirn?     [cerebral organoids:  what to do with so little brain?]

http://www.faz.net/aktuell/feuilleton/zerebrale-organoide-was-macht-man-mit-so-wenig-hirn-12550596.html

>The in vitro creation of a human brain from embryonic stem cells is the culmination of a biotechnical chain reaction: 
The breeding planning and bioengineering control of the body advances over a new threshold.>>

The experiment was done in Austria (Wiener Institut für Molekulare Biotechnologie). 

Looked at the picture for a long time. This cell culture is very tiny, it appears;  the stunned reactions by readers of the article
are enlarging it already.
