    I read somewhere that the brain can re-map the homunculus if a body part is lost, allocating the same brain region to another body part. How and why does this happen? And how does the brain come up with its original homunculus in the first place?

    Thanks for the great video! Just a comment, please practice using non-gendered language when referring to occupations (e.g. surgeons). Referring to surgeons using male pronouns is odd unless you're referring to a specific person and it helps to perpetuate stereotypes that certain occupations are only open to one gender. Language plays an important role in modifying culture and encouraging inclusivity. Thank you :)

    I understand you, Hannah. And generally speaking, you are right. However, the primary purpose of this video is teaching/learning. Making language more complex (which non-gendered language typically is) would therefore not be practical. Make the language as simple as possible, so that both the teacher and the learner can focus on the knowledge to be transferred.

    Yes!! I could not agree more. The fact that the presenter says "the surgeon places his electrode" two seconds before " the patient will get a sensation in some part of his or her body" really highlights it, too.
