NUST MISIS Students Develop a “Phantom” Brain for Neurosurgical Practice

A team of NUST MISIS students developed a “phantom” of the human brain, i.e. a hydrogel model with structural and mechanical similarity to a real organ. “Fantomozg” (en: Phantombrain) will allow students and neurosurgeons to study the pathological anatomy of tissues and train in complicated surgical manipulations.
