Disembodied pig brains could be the next great revolution in neuroscience. Find out how scientists kept a pig's brain alive while separated from its body.
Kinda horrifying but also makes me hope things like this lead to advances in medicine that can allow sci fi shit like a totally body transplant or being able to take the brain out, work on it like a car engine and pop it back in
