Abstract: A method for producing a brain organoid having an aggregated tau protein including (a) culturing pluripotent stem cells in the presence of a SMAD inhibitor to form an embryoid body, (b) embedding the embryoid body in an extracellular matrix and three-dimensionally culturing the embryoid body in the presence of a SMAD inhibitor and a GSK3? inhibitor to form an organoid that includes neural precursor cells, (c) extracting the organoid from the extracellular matrix and suspension-culturing the organoid in the presence of LIF to form a brain organoid, (d) forcing the brain organoid to express a mutant MAPT gene, and (e) further suspension-culturing the brain organoid after (d) to obtain a brain organoid having an aggregated tau protein.

Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus capable of further enhancing an effect of reducing blurring or noise in an image at the time of MFNR. An information processing apparatus including a control unit that selects a reference image from a plurality of images continuously captured by an image capturing apparatus, on the basis of information of the image capturing apparatus acquired by an inertial sensor when each of the images is captured, and superimposes remaining images on the reference image while performing alignment with the reference image, to combine the images into one image.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a separation unit, a Bayer image signal supply unit, and a signal processing unit. The separation unit separates and removes, in input image signals in which pixel signals each including an invisible light component are arranged in an array different from a Bayer array, the invisible light components from the pixel signals. The Bayer image signal supply unit arranges the pixel signals from which the invisible light components have been removed in the Bayer array and supplies the pixel signals as Bayer image signals. The signal processing unit subjects the Bayer image signals to predetermined signal processing.
