Image Press coverage | Dec 25 2025 NPR Experts met to discuss the ethics of using organoids in research Organoids are bits of neural tissue that model human brain development. Their use in science makes some uneasy, in part because the brain is so closely tied to our sense of self. Image Press coverage | Nov 7 2025 STAT Scientists and bioethicists call for global oversight of brain organoid research Scientists and ethicists including Wu Tsai Neuro affiliates Sergiu Pașca and Hank Greely argued for an international process to address the ethical and social questions raised by organoids.
