Has anyone ever tried to transplant parts of the brain? Can it be done?

Asked by nebule (16452points) February 4th, 2010

…if not…why not…? Could the brain not make new connections….

Or like… someone that has had a stroke in the left hemisphere… and the damage is irreparable..could you transplant a left hemisphere? Just wondering…

Sorry if my biological questioning and lack of knowledge sounds incredibly naive and stupid :-)
