      Evening all, just going to float a really daft question out there.

      There's heart transplants, lung transplants etc.

      What about cochlear transplants? A brand new set of hair cels to go to concerts and clubbing with. Or do I need a brain transplant?

      That would be an incredibly difficult surgery to perform.
