Brain Transplants:
What will be an ideal response?
My all-time favorite is a NOVA video entitled Brain Transplants, which documents the beginning of fetal tissue transplants for Parkinson’s disease. The film shows excellent footage of individuals in late-stage substantia nigra degeneration secondary to drug overdose, and documents the process of discovery concerning treatment for this condition. My students continue to state that this is one of the best videos they have ever seen.
