A Melbourne-led team has for the first time shown that 800,000 brain cells living in a dish can perform goal-directed tasks – in this case the simple tennis-like computer game, Pong.

 

The results of the study are published today in the journal Neuron.

 

Now they are going to find out what happens when their DishBrain is affected by medicines and alcohol.
