Journal Club: Modeling Mysterious Brain Structures

You've probably heard of the blood-brain barrier, but did you know there is a second barrier that protects that brain from the blood? It is formed by the choroid plexus, which produces the cerebral spinal fluid. This understudied but critical part of the brain is finally getting the attention it deserves due to a new "mini brain" model. We discuss this model and its many applications on this episode of Journal Club.
