RE: Electrical Brain Stimulation
"Surgery" started as someone putting a piece of wood between someone's teeth, and hacking away at a limb with a saw. Some people called Surgeons, butchers. Science has to advance, it is nature that dictates our evolution, and science is part of that. Why do you consider it meddling with nature? Do you think a cancer patient would appreciate your slow approach?
doesn't cancer has to do more with DNA and the information it carries from one to the other? ...and this would be a different topic. By stimulating the brain I speculate you want peoples brain capacity to increase. Hey, now we will have one MUCH more smarter than other and the competition for resources will really be one of uneven proportions.
cheers
Actually, most medicines today stimulate the brains to produce/block certain chemicals/enzymes/proteins which helps the healing process, this stimulation might be done with electric current in the future without the need for medicine. We might be able to kill cancer cells by growing our brain capacity to produce cancer cells killers.
