I can turn a pc on without an operating system. Of course, it won’t do anything, but it will turn on.
“Igor, is this brain fresh?”
“Very fresh, master.”

Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
>>“Clinically defined, this is not a living brain, but it is a cellularly active brain.”

>>The researchers never aimed to restore consciousness to a brain, according to co-author Stephen Latham, director of Yale’s Interdisciplinary Center for Bioethics.

>>“The researchers were prepared to intervene with the use of anesthetics and temperature-reduction to stop organized global electrical activity if it were to emerge,” Latham said. “Everyone agreed in advance that experiments involving revived global activity couldn’t go forward without clear ethical standards and institutional oversight mechanisms.”
And yet there are people who are proclaimed “brain dead” yet live on without machines. So no hope for advancement of recovery for them?
Better to starve them to death like in Florida?
Make a legal medical procedure and use it medically.
Was the brain in the head? Because my understanding of what happens when you stop perfuming a brain is that there is immediate swelling, swelling in a “closed box” which means immediate onset of pressures higher than mean arterial blood pressure, which means that the heart is probably never gonna perfume that breaking again and certainly not “in time”. If you do a cerebral arteriogram ona person who is “clinically brain dead” there is no perfusion of the brain. So even if exposure to miracle meds might be experimentally possible somehow I doubt it will ever be practical. What is the point of reviving a brain outside the body?
I see the brain as computer hardware and bios, and the “Person” as application software in the cloud that runs on the hardware. Once the connection is cut, you may be able to activate the hardware, but all that is there is the bios.
And it’s not actually alive. I could see a world where we harvest animal brains as the hardware for a new type of computer. Imagine a super computer powered by thousands and thousands of Monkey brains as its CPU.
Made me laugh just thinking of his face!
>>“New guidelines are needed for studies involving the preservation or restoration of whole brains, because animals used for such research could end up in a gray area — not alive, but not completely dead,” they wrote. “
These same sort of ghouls want human-animal hybrids to experiment on. “not human not completely animal”.
They also consider human fetus to be sub-human, not human and therefore ok to snuff out or harvest for genetic parts.
The researchers never aimed to restore consciousness to a brain...
Zombie Pigs?
No thanks!

Is this story about turning off machines? Nope.
“Uh oh, got a virus!”
RBG.
What machines was she on?
Pig brains would be cheaper, and we get great barbecue too.
Of course, their brains could band together and make us into barbecue.
