PEPTALK Hersenen in een kweekschaal! Een 'ver van mijn bed' verhaal?

Onze hersenen zijn een mooi en super complex orgaan. Het is belangrijk voor de aansturing van ons lichaam, maar het is ook de zetel van onze persoonlijkheid. In de jacht op goede medicijnen voor hele zeldzame hersenaandoeningen wordt veel gebruik gemaakt van hersenen in een kweekbakje. Zijn hersenen in een kweekbakje echt wel hersenen?

Professor Willeke van Roon-Mom van de afdeling Humane Genetica van het Leids Universitair Medisch Centrum (LUMC) legt het uit
