Fresh news
Mayo Clinic researchers have found a novel way to monitor real-time chemical changes in the brains of patients undergoing
deep brain stimulation (DBS), using a small neurochemical sensor implanted in the patient’s brain ,linked wirelessly to a laptop.The groundbreaking insight will help physicians more effectively use DBS to treat brain disorders such as Parkinson’s disease ,depression and Tourette syndrome.

Imagine the ultimate automatic physician
Eyes: Sensors candetect biological andchemical signals Hands:
Actuators can impact thebody up to the level ofa single cell
The Brain:Needs to filter, aggregate,Transform, match patterns,
Predict, and make decisions
The brain of the ultimate physician is an event processingNetwork!
Goal:Cope with any
possible sicknessreactively orproactively

Our challenge –extend the lifespan of people
Develop event processing models and tools that will be easily consumed by biologists to be the backbone of the singularity
revolution.…
This is much more important from anything that each of us did until today… so drop anything and
concentrate on this..
