The human brain is unique because it is the only body organ that cannot, even in principle, be transplanted from a donor without fundamentally .. Read more altering the individual persona of the recipient patient. Information pertaining to brain structure, neural connectivity, neurotransmitter activity, cellular and organ-level neurological function, and higher mental states including personality and self-awareness can be permanently altered or lost as a result of physical trauma, pathogenic diseases, and a variety of degenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s. Once destroyed, this information cannot, even in principle, be recovered using current techniques, thus permanently diminishing patient health. It must be a key goal of future medical technology to provide novel methods for measuring, validating, and archiving comprehensive brain-related structural and functional information.
