Studies that make brainlike structures or add human cells to animal brains are ethical (hợp với luân thường đạo lý, đúng với nguyên tắc xử thế), for now, panel says

Experiments that create tiny brainlike structures from human stem cells (tế bào gốc) or transplant (cấy ghép) human cells into an animal’s brain (não) have made some scientists, ethicists (nhà đạo đức học), and religious (tôn giáo) leaders uneasy in recent years. And the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has restricted some of this research. Now, a U.S. scientific panel has weighed in with advice about how to oversee this controversial (gây tranh cãi) and fast-moving (tiến triển nhanh chóng) area of neuroscience (khoa học về thần kinh).

The panel finds little evidence that brain “organoids” or animals given human cells experience humanlike consciousness (ý thức, nhận thức) or pain, and concludes current rules are adequate for overseeing this work. But they caution that could change, particularly as experiments move into nonhuman primates. “The rationale for the report is to get out ahead of the curve,” says Harvard University neuroscientist Joshua Sanes, co-chair of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine committee that released its report today.
