Regrowing Limbs: Can People Regenerate Body Parts?: Scientific American

A salamander’s limbs are smaller and a bit slimier than those of most people, but otherwise they are not that different from their human counterparts. The salamander limb is encased in skin, and inside it is composed of a bony skeleton, muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves and blood vessels. A loose arrangement of cells called fibroblasts holds all these internal tissues together and gives the l...

Regrowing axons with alternative splicing

The regeneration of axons relies on a previously unknown mechanism that involves the regulation of alternative splicing by CELF proteins.

Promising perspectives towards regrowing a human arm

Despite the great enthusiasm about tissue engineering during the 1980s and the many significant basic observations made since then, the clinical application of tissue-engineered products has been limited. However, the prospect of creating new human tissues and organs is still exciting and continues to be a significant challenge for scientists and clinicians. A human arm is an extremely complica...

The research findings provide evidence that time-oriented data visualizations can contribute to faster information processing, better understanding and improved recall. Thus, they are used in many application domains – medicine, law enforcement, traffic and navigation control to name but a few. Simultaneously, human’s time perception varies depending inter alia on culture, language, personal ex...
