Micro Camera in Mouse’s Brain
A Micro camera has been implanted in a mouse’s brain that will keep track of its behaviour and also report ailments like parkinson tremors and its being implanted in the hippocampus region of the mouse’s region.The team at Nara Institute of Science and Technology in Japan are using the 0.1-inch-long camera to look for information on brain activity that causes tremors. They hope the results may lead to better treatments for Parkinson’s disease, and if successful they may also experiment with humans. We can’t imagine how strange it would be to know your brain’s being watched from inside your head.
