Blind tadpoles 'see' after researchers graft eyes on tails
Blind tadpoles were able to process visual information from eyes grafted onto their tails by US-based researchers. Partial vision was enabled after treatment with a neurotransmitter drug facilitating innervation, integration, and function of the transplanted organ. The drug's use is approved in regenerative medicine for use in humans for innervation, the supply of nerves to a body part.
