Can you swap brains

Answer 1

Yes, you can have a brain transplant. Right now scientists are working on partial transplants (on mice), which would move part of the brain that stores memory and part of your identity-personality wise. So yes people can have brain transplants because your brain is connected to the rest of your body . the brain is the part of the body that tells the heart to pump and keep your lungs pumping....

It is possible when it is done using fetal brain slices. Because it is difficult to regenerate functional connections between nerve cells if the cells are not actively dividing. Subsequent research has shown that an adult brain transplant might be feasible. However it can only replace parts of it. As long the areas that control critical body functions are unharmed. Still, the donor brain must be compatible with the host. The molecular markers must be compatible. Usually nerve cells are vastly different from person to person. It is almost impossible to find 2 person with the same nerve cells. Also, you must consider the possibility of organ rejection. For the transplant to work there must be a match in 26 categories. With half of 26 categories, the transplant could work. But it would need post-surgical treatments to prevent rejection. However for a compatible transplant, it is 1 in 100000. This problem can be readily overcome by using a clone of the original organism as the recipient of the brain transplant. This also bypasses many ethical hurdles of brain transplant but introduces others in regards to cloning human beings .

Answer 2

Brain transplants are currently impossible, and probably will be for many years to come.

Answer 3

i would say no since your brain controls everything so if u taken it out u would die

Despite all the television shows and movies, it is impossible to physically swap brains.

Answer 4
