This from the same guys who got neurons in a petri dish to successfully play pong. The CL1 is a box with biological neurons inside that can be controlled and programmed with an API. They've been working on this for quite a while and just made their first public release.

Its expected the CL1 will be extremely helpful for researching Alzheimer's and other neurological based disorders, including neuron response to medicine for faster drug testing.
