I assume it’s not that different from growing a rat neuron blob.

How are they growing human brain blobs?

Every time certain segments of society speak it causes small potions of the audience’s brains to drip out of their ears. These bits are scraped up off the floor and, after mixing well with some tapioca, come to plausibly resemble the mental functions of the person last heard speaking.
The MAGA effect.
In the past few years, it has become possible to encourage stem cells – versatile cells similar to those found in embryos – to grow into spherical masses of brain tissue up to three millimetres wide, known as brain organoids.
Cool. Thanks
Adding to this, you can induce blood cells to become stem cells, so that’s often how those are created
