"In a study published in Nature Communications, the researchers reveal an elegant molecular mechanism that acts like a GPS coordinate system for regenerating cells… the puzzle was how the cells in the regenerating limb-stump controlled their levels so precisely to know exactly where they were on the axis from shoulder to hand.”
The Nature paper:
Until they try it on humans and it turns out it also grows cancer.
Woah, fascinating. Of course very far out, but manipulating and regenerating human limbs in a similar way would be serious sci-fi stuff. Just impressive
Not that I would be an expert, but limbs start forming so early on in the womb, that that will probably be a very difficult thing to do. Nevertheless, never say never.
Now’s a good time to point out that the first organ transplant happened in the 1950s, and it hasn’t been even 80 years since, meaning there are not only people alive who remember a time when that didn’t exist, but also there are surgeons who may only be in their early 40s that became transplant surgeons while the first ever transplant surgeon was still alive, and may have even gotten tutelage from him.
Does this lead to me getting a bigger dick? Otherwise, I’m not interested!
no but if it gets cut off for whatever reason…
New kink unlocked
Fuck. I want to get rid of it, not grow a new one.
You could get rid of it. Several times, even.

Finally I can get my foreskin back
Oh hey I could get mine back and then get circumcised again just to piss off all the crybabies who want to sue their parents for having them circumcised the first time.
