Although I wonder what may come from this. If the brain is fine but the body aging will the rich just swap. Semi immortality.

Why am I imagining a 300+ year old head on a newly grown body that resembles Adonis?

they've not even attempted to reconnect the spinal cord with a flippin monkey, if they can't demonstrate it on a live monkey yet then what hope does a human have... I wouldn't trust their BS trials on cadavers... they're not really being self critical enough here, try it on a monkey with the spinal cord attached and see

All I would want to know is.........

Will my penis work correctly? :confused:

Imagine you think you getting stiff but you get floppy and when you think you floppy you get stiff! :eek:

I read about this time ago, I can pretty much guarantee 100% it wont work.

Good luck to the feller.

Why does an animal have to (most probably) die first?

The Russian guy is willing, so let him be the test case.

Far less controversial than babies having 3 parents or brains grown in laboratories.

That would be giving a corpse a head, necrophilia?

He will be in a coma for months and then die. :rolleyes:

That is my prediction anyway, the is not a chance in hell this will work.

I am from old school biology and know for a fact it wont work period.

But hey god loves a trier....... But wait the is no god! Oh well I suppose he will die.

Hope am wrong.

The volunteer seems to have a good enough reason.

Might be grasping at straws because of his situation.
