Scientists to develop Neanderthal 'miniature brains'
Scientists are to bring Neanderthal “miniature brains” to life to see how humans differ to their closest relatives. The tiny blobs of tissue, around the size of a lentil, will be grown from human stem cells edited to contain Neanderthal DNA, according to reports. The so-called brain organoids are incapable of thoughts or feelings but will replicate the basic structures of an adult brain.
