Scientists grew a hybrid mouse with rat brain cells, using genetic modification and stem cells from a rat. Their new method for creating chimeras, based on CRISPR, could open the door to growing humanized organs in animals for transplantation into humans.
Note: Rat and mouse cortex is not wrinkly like human cortex. It is pretty smooth, as shown at 7:06.

damn that's crazy. instead of thinking about cheese it was probably thinking about cheese

You have a knack for dumbing down information without insulting anyone. This was a great and exciting video.

My first tought was : "God if the Furies find this, we're in big trouble"
-
Me: "ya can we have affordable housing" The world: "best incan do is rat mouse chimera!"
-
Another step closer to Humans being capable of photosynthesis.
-
Even thought I don't fully understand most of your videos I can't avoid finding them really interesting. Keep up the great work!

The pinky, the pinky and the brain brain brain brain..

This is mind blowing

"So basically we genetically engineered a rat with body dysmorphia" '...why?' "it sounded cool"

Is this a mat or a rouse?

Mrs Frisby’s husband definitely had human brain cells.

Damn, Jurassic Park for real.

test which one is more dominant by seeing if it'll snitch

Ah yes, human horrors beyond our comprehension.

Is this a similar concept to how Killer Bees didn't used to be part killer?
