Minicérebros e o futuro da inteligência: ‘parece ficção’
Sep 1, 2026 · 5m
Summary
Marta Gabriel discusses "minicérebros," or brain organoids, developed by researcher Alisson Mottri to study neurological conditions like autism and Alzheimer's. These lab-grown tissues are also tested in space with NASA to accelerate cellular aging studies. The episode explores how combining these organoids with AI creates energy-efficient "organoid intelligence," potentially revolutionizing cognitive capabilities while raising questions about the future relationship between human brains and technology.
