In a new study in mice, a team of researchers from UCLA, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, and Harvard University have uncovered a crucial component for restoring functional activity after spinal cord injury. The neuroscientists have shown that re-growing specific neurons back to their natural target regions led to recovery, while random regrowth was not effective.

      Their whole consciousness reduced down to moving forward and backwards in a toy car. Absolutely barbaric.

      You’re making it sound like they did it for funsies, rather than important research. Also, link please, this sounds like a massive breakthrough.
