California smokers - seriously exciting prospect
Hello gang,
Boy would I love to take part in this: http://www.omneuron.com/feedback.htm
Before you say to yourself, "aaah, what a load of snake oil!" consider that Omneuron are one of the pioneers in fMRI - a non invasive brain-scanning procedure that gives a real time image of not only the brain itself, but also of the electrical activity taking place within the brain.
Up ’till recently, their main focus has been the reduction of pain in chronic pain sufferers, but this trial would suggest they have some pretty compelling theory that their technique will aid smokers using the same technique.
At the helm is Dr. Christopher deCharms, a respected neuroscientist, inventor and author.
I highly recommend his (short) TED talk which you can watch here. Actually, I highly recommend you watch all TED talks!
From the Omneuron site: ||| |||Haha! Did you watch the vid, Bob? I like the way he views this as new frontier in mind alteration where previously we have had only drugs, the psychiatrist’s couch and surgery.|||Watched the video.
Mind control, eh? Having once been fascinated with hypnosis, I can see why this capability to see the brain in action would have so much appeal. And once we can control the brain for pain, can we control it for pleasure? Oooo. The mind boggles.|||Wow! Free nicotine patches and an opportunity to view your brain activity through virtual reality goggles!
Now there’s a study I would love to participate in.
Darn!…..if only I hadn’t gotten all of those tatoos on my head! :mrgreen:|||Yeah, the fMRI scanners are gonna have to drop in price a bit before they out-popularize the PS3 in the front-room pleasure-center stakes though!|||
