Transplantation of Human Brain Organoids: Revisiting the Science and Ethics of Brain Chimeras
Abstract
Recent demonstrations of human brain organoid transplantation in rodents have accentuated ethical concerns associated with these entities, especially as they relate to potential “humanization” of host animals. Consideration of established scientific principles can help define the realistic range of expected outcomes in such transplantation studies. This practical approach suggests that augmentation of discrete brain functions in transplant hosts...
