What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28

Too early to adopt

Why
Striking developmental-neuroscience proof-of-concept but firmly basic research (TRL ~2-3): non-mammalian models, explicit translation barriers, and unreported durability metrics put it years from any applied use.
Next
Monitor the Jia Liu lab for replication in mammalian embryos and quantified long-term recording stability; revisit only if a translational path emerges.
