Japanese researchers make brain tissues from stem cells

Holy shit.

Japanese researchers said they had created functioning human brain tissues from stem cells, a world first that has raised new hopes for the treatment of disease."

This is why the Republicans have to get rid of their neo-con usurpers.

This is why.
We are no longer the leaders of the Scientific Revolution.
This is why.
