  • What Are You?
    Human Being or Human Brain? Animalism and the Problem of Thinking Brains Ida Anderalm Master’s Thesis in Philosophy, 30 credits Spring 2016 Supervisor: Pär Sundström Department of Historical, Philosophical and Religious Studies Abstract Animalismens huvudargument säger att du är det tänkande objektet som sitter i din stol, och enligt animalisterna själva innebär detta att du är identisk med ett mänskligt djur. Argumentet är dock problematiskt då det inte tycks utesluta eventuella tänkande delar hos det mänskliga djuret, som till exempel dess hjärna. Detta beror på att hjärnor också kan beskrivas som tänkande, samt att även de befinner sig inom det spatiella område som upptas av det mänskliga djuret. I den här uppsatsen argumenterar jag för att tänkande hjärnor är ett problem för animalismen och att tesen att vi är identiska med hjärnor är ett verkligt hot mot den animalistiska teorin om personlig identitet. Olika argument som lagts fram mot tesen att vi är hjärnor avhandlas, som till exempel att hjärnor inte existerar och att hjärnor inte tänker. Jag diskuterar även två argument som tidigare använts för att visa att vi är personer snarare än mänskliga djur (the Transplant Intuition och the Remnant Person Problem), men i det här sammanhanget bedöms de utifrån deras förmåga att stödja hjärnteorin.

Pigs, therefore, have been genetically engineered to provide their tissues with some protection against the human immune response. However, further immunological barriers need to be overcome. Many questions remain regarding the adequate function of pig organs in humans. The safety of xenotransplantation also remains of some concern. Is there a risk of the transfer of a pig infectious microorganism into the community? Present evidence is that this potential risk is low. This potential, however, has legal and regulatory implications. History of Xenotransplantation went on to transplant occasional chimpanzee or baboon livers in critically ill patients.

  • Mechanisms and Use of Neural Transplants for Brain Repair

Tel: +44 2920 875188, Fax: +44 2920 876749, email address: [email protected]. Abstract Under appropriate conditions, neural tissues transplanted into the adult mammalian brain can survive, integrate and function so as to influence the behaviour of the host, opening the prospect of repairing neuronal damage and alleviating symptoms associated with neuronal injury or neurodegenerative disease. Alternative mechanisms of action have been postulated : non-specific effects of surgery; neurotrophic and neuroprotective influences on disease progression and host plasticity; diffuse or locally-regulated pharmacological delivery of deficient neurochemcials, neurotransmitters or neurohormones; restitution of the neuronal and glial environment necessary for proper host neuronal support and processing; promoting local and long distance host and graft axon growth; formation of reciprocal connections and reconstruction of local circuits within the host brain; up to full integration and reconstruction of fully functional host neuronal networks. Analysis of neural transplants in a broad range of anatomical systems and disease models, on simple and complex classes of behavioural function and information processing, have indicated
