The HEAVEN head transplant initiative needs human data concerning the acute restoration of motor transmission after application of fusogens to the severed cord in man. Data from two centuries ago prove that a fresh cadaver, after hanging or decapitation, can be mobilized by electrical stimulation for up to 3 hours. By administering spinal cord stimulation by applied paddles to the cord or transcranial magnetic stimulation to M1 and recording motor evoked potentials, it should be possible to test fusogens in fresh cadavers. Delayed neuronal death might be the neuropathological reason.
“天堂”头部移植计划需要有关在人体切断的脊髓上应用融合剂后运动传导急性恢复的人体数据。两个世纪前的数据证明，新鲜尸体在绞刑或斩首后，通过电刺激可活动长达3小时。通过将电极板应用于脊髓进行脊髓刺激或对M1进行经颅磁刺激并记录运动诱发电位，应该可以在新鲜尸体上测试融合剂。延迟性神经元死亡可能是神经病理学原因。
