The innovative research by Dr. Pasca’s lab is truly awe-inspiring and pioneering. Utilizing this organoid and assembloid technology may afford a not-so-distant future where our understanding of neurodegenerative diseases and other devastating neurologic conditions can be enriched and the prospect of identifying feasible treatments or meaningful improvements could become a reality. I appreciate how Dr. Pasca acknowledged the important ethical considerations inherent to his research. At this juncture, the ongoing research does not seem to overtly violate ethical principles. This is considering that the skin samples are obtained under consent and with understanding that these cells are engineered neural tissue capable of organizing, responding physiologically, and resemble part of the brain, but are not sophisticated enough to have perception or feeling. While Dr. Pasca mentioned the scientific community’s obligation to operate carefully, and communicate ethical questions, societal implications, and potential regulations, the future application of this technology should be subject to diligent ethical evaluation, particularly use in transplantation of these organoids or assembloids into humans or animals. Furthermore, as the science continues to develop, these stem cells will likely be utilized in ways that may not be envisioned right now. With this in mind, the scientific community as a whole needs to hold researchers accountable in order to comply with the ethical principle of non-maleficence or do no harm to all involved. According to bioethicist, Sarah Chan of the Usher Institute of Population Health Sciences at the University of Edinburgh, the benefits of brain organoid research are many and the risks are few at this stage. But, per her account, “if we ever start using brain organoids directly in therapy, as a form of tissue transplantation, then we’ll have to think again about what the risks are.” Ultimately, I believe that with the evolving science involved in this research, we must ensure that ethical considerations and implications are maintained during the research process and match future scientific advancements.
this is crazy. absolutely crazy. the first time i got hooked in neurotransmitter was in high School after i saw a movie about ALD disease (lorenzo's oil). and lately im studying abt personality disorder (dsm 5), and these disorder can be genetics bc of lack of neuron in the brain. he is so right. this is huugeee, amazing. lots lots of people with disorders will get benefit form this. i cannot wait to know more in the future!
It's almost heartbreaking to me that we won't see the full long term fruits of this labor in our lifetimes. I mean there will be developments and insights but the complete combating of certain diseases will be mostly for future generations to benefit from.
We don’t know that. History shows that as tech improves it accelerates learning and development. We could make huge improvements by 2045 with AI that can function at a higher level than humans. This could lead to numerous ground breaking discoveries and treatments in different aspects of life.
Also remember there is a lot of money in the medical industry. It's more profitable to not cure cancer. I don't want to get all conspiracy like by any means. But i'll just say that, you'd be surprised how many times lab findings are altered as to have different findings to limit advancements. I know of one case personally from a family member regarding medical marijuana at one of the big unis. It's a real worry, let alone what will and wont be in our lifetime. However we are born in one of the best time periods the world has seen. Technological and world standing. All the damage caused to the world and bloodlines through our forefathers and establishments before that. We are in a far better position than the industrial age for example, however paying for it now in our lifetimes.
So what? 100 billion people before paved the path for us to get this to this stage and we have had better lives than all of them in every considerable way.
