They haven’t tried this with human subjects so far as I know but when sensors such as hearing are hooked up to a different lobe than Nature intended, the part hooked up to rebuilds itself so it can process hearing things. This would imply that the brain not only builds its own structure as it pleases, but that mental exercise could very well rebuild parts that need rebuilding or strengthening. Don’t know if a completely new lobe would be built if the person is thinking new, heretical thoughts.
