British scientists from Cambridge University have created hundreds of artificial copies of the human brain.
The samples grown to study the brain in vitro.
In the collection there are already 300 artificial brain. The diameter of each instance is about four millimeters, and age – 7 months. While it is not suitable for the transmission of thoughts and feelings, but only to study, but in the future, according to researchers, their opening will help to substitute the injured brain with the artificial one.
Their invention is only about two million neurons, but this number of nerve cells is not enough to create an opportunity to convey information through the channels. In this the human brain, their number exceeds four billion. Instances that are in a huge incubator on the territory of the University laboratories, created using stem cells and nourishes them with a special liquid.
Scientists took stem proteins that remain when others begin to die, and develop and as long as they do not become brain cells. The study needs to be expanded related to the functioning of the brain, artificially created.
