The human brain is unique in size and complexity, but also the source of some of the most devastating human diseases. Cerebral organoids derived from patients suffering from neurodevelopmental disease can recapitulate the developmental defects leading to those diseases and allow us to disentangle the mechanistic complexity of disorders like Epilepsy and Autism.
