(North) Korean News: "New Artificial Dura Mater of Brain Developed"

Here's a nightmare for you. It could be worse--they could announce the discovery an artificial substitute for one of the thinking parts of the brain.
Researchers of the Clinical Research Institute of the Kim Man Yu Hospital and Textile Research Institute of the Branch Academy of Light Industrial Science under the State Academy of Sciences have developed artificial dura mater of brain, the first of its kind in the DPRK. It is made with void-free polyester fiber.

The material is free from the adhesive with living body tissue and antigen-antibody reaction and is safe to acid, alkali and all inorganic and organic chemical medicines.

So far it has been transplanted to tens of patients, but no side-effects have been reported.
Aside from an enhanced appreciation of the undying feats of the Dear Leader.
