Neuroimaging in humans for instance, has shown that when an individual watches someone else, especially whom they relate to recieve an award or score a goal or something, Their own brain's reward systems light up vicariously.
Italian researchers found this out pretty much by accident in the early 1990s. They were studying signals from key regions in a lab monkey's brain that were associated with planning and doing.
Their brain-monitoring device buzzed softly when the monkey did something like pick up a piece of fruit and eat it.
But one hot day, a researcher came back from lunch licking an ice cream cone, and suddenly heard the animal's brain monitor buzz -- the monkey was watching him, and his brain worked as if he was actually doing the licking!
Many scientists suspect that this is the work of a previously unknown type of brain cell called "mirror neurons", which fire when a subject both performs an action, and when they observe someone else doing it.

Radical New Method Can Directly Edit Human Cells to Get Rid of Genetic Disease
Scientists in the US have developed a powerful new genome editing system that could offer significantly more precision and efficiency than the current CRISPR standard.
