The brain adapts: Boy’s brain rewired itself to compensate when a huge piece was removed
It’s too bad that people can’t regrow limbs like the axolotl. The rare amphibian, which can only be found in the canals of Mexico City, is the focus of studies on human limb regeneration on account of its being able to regrow any body part that it loses almost perfectly. Humans still have a long way […]
