Mini brains kept alive for years appear to age like real brains

They’ve discovered that these tiny clumps of neural tissue can actually show signs of aging similar to a real human brain. This opens up amazing opportunities to study brain development and diseases that we still don’t fully understand. It’s a thrilling step forward in neuroscience, even though there are still some limits to how much these organoids can mature.
