Real Mind-control - New techniques manipulate brain cells

This real-time mind control method is reminiscent of how Professor X could control the minds of other people in the X-Men films. This new cutting-edge techniques can manipulate brain cells and control ones mind ...

While mind control used to be the stuff of bad sci-fi nightmares, today its a reality. Researchers said they have been able to control the minds of living animals by tweaking the activity of their brain cells. Using a specialized microscope to tweak activity of brain circuits, they were able to control the behavior of mice, leading to hopes that they could one day selectively stimulate cells in the brain, like hitting keys on a piano.

Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley combined cutting-edge techniques to develop a tool which can zoom in on a patch of brain cells (pictured) and alter their activity using laser light. By targeting a specific area of just a few thousand cells with the tool, they were able to change the electrical signals passed between them, so altering the activity of the animal's brain circuitry.

Initial tests in live mice used the tool to record the activity of cells during small movements, such as moving its whiskers (stock image). This neural activity was mapped to a hologram, which was then used to trigger the same network of neurons to fire in the same way - controlling the mouse's behaviour with light. 'With this new microscope, we believe we will soon be able to treat the brain as the keyboard of a piano, so to speak, and write in a sequence of activity that is needed to understand or correct brain function,' said Dr Hillel Adesnik, a neurobiologist at UCB,

We're adapting holographic display technology, optogenetics and sensory biology and behaviour into one complete system that allows an all-optical approach to image and manipulate the nervous system,' said Adesnik. the group is also developing the technology to trick mice into seeing things that aren't there.

you can make stuff like this up ...
i sure hope bad guys get this new technology
