For the first time, scientists have transplanted neural cells derived from a monkey's skin into its brain and watched the cells develop into several types of mature brain cells, according to the authors of a new study in Cell Reports. After six months, the cells looked entirely normal, and were only detectable because they initially were tagged with a fluorescent protein.This experiment uses dopamine cells, but is the same process Dr. Merkle is using to make Orexin cells.
Wicked Awesome Science.
I might eat some sugar and dream of my brain transplant.
