Biological Computer: Human Brain Cells on a Chip

SMRTR summary

Australian startup Cortical Labs has launched the CL1, a biocomputer that uses human brain cells on a silicon chip to process information. This groundbreaking technology, designed for neuroscience and biotech research, allows real-time study of neural responses to stimuli. The CL1 contains 800,000 lab-grown human neurons and can adapt and learn from interactions, potentially revolutionizing drug discovery and disease modeling for conditions like epilepsy and Alzheimer's.
