A research in France has invented that when patients have both hands transplanted, their brains reestablished connections much more quickly with the left hand than the right. The report was written with just two patients, but both had been right-handed before losing their hands, and both followed a pattern of reconnection with their brain that was quicker for the left hand.
The study at the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Lyon shows that even years after the loss of hands the brain can reorganize and rewire itself to recognize and connect to a replacement. More study is needed to determine why the brain reconnected more efficiently to the left hand in these patients.
