But wouldn't that mean he's no longer the same person, if he doesn't have the same brain? Or did they only transplant part of the brain?
they took the damaged brain out of a persons head and kept him alive using a playstation 2.
from that they extracted a few cells and grew them on a form of scaffolding in the shape of a brain. (the scaffold disappears in time)
when the brain is fully grown, they place back in the skull of the patient and everything is supposed to be fully functional. sadly the cells they used to grow the brain was from the damaged part of it. so now; instead of having a partially damaged brain the patient has a completely damaged brain....
isn't that right benny
