"Some memories just won't die — and some can even be transferred to a whole new brain. Researchers at Tufts University have determined that a small, yellow worm known as a planarian, which has long been studied for its regenerative properties, is able to grow back a lot more than just its body parts: after the worm's small, snake-like head and neck are removed, its body will even regrow a brain that's capable of quickly relearning its lost skills."

***** A site for my classes because life goes beyond prescribed text and there is so much to share and to learn. And of course, since lessons are often punctuated with hysterical laughter and incoherent mind flow, here is a venue to organise my thought processes.
