Doctors able to 'print' new organs for transplant patients

This interesting new device is a 3D bio-printer that is capable of creating arteries and veins on a cellular level.  Future iterations of the device can allow scientist to recreate organs that layers cellular building blocks to create usable organs.

Scientists Plan Artificial Brain to Model Humans

Scientists Will Use Simulated Neurons to Understand Mental Illness 


Here is an article I wrote about how technology is merging with technology.  Rightfully, the technology is focused on transmitting electrical signals via simulated neurons.  The ramifications are that scientists are working to create neurons in the lab. These neurons could possibly be used for spinal injuries, nervous system disorders and possibly the beginnings of the artificial brain.  


Ultimately it illustrates mankind's move toward self evolution.  As we build the tools to fix ourselves, the distance between man and machine lessens.
