Do you think the problems that a 98 year old experiences is entirely attibuted to the body? Do you think any of that is attributed to the brain?

I think if you transplanted an old brain into a young body, you would end up with teenagers with Alzheimers.
I don't know. It is my non medical understanding that stem cells more abundant in a younger body might affect that disease or just stem cells derived from an exact match genetically might be introduced into the brain.

I'm more asking that if these medical questions and concerns were addressed successfully would you want in?
