Hybrid brain lets one species' neurons help out another's
Adding rat stem cells to a mouse embryo resulted in a ‘hybrid brain’ in which the rat cells stepped in to restore function when the mouse’s sense of smell was removed, new research has shown. It’s the first time one animal’s cells have been used to rescue another’s senses, and it represents a step forward in regenerative medicine.
