soundwave Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 (edited) "..An electrode connector and electrodes are then glued on to the insect's body and a needle is used to poke a hole in their thorax in order to insert a wire. Their antennae are then cut and electrodes are inserted. A circuit is attached to their backs, and signals are received through a mobile phone app allowing users to control the cockroaches' movements to the left and to the right." http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-24455141 Edited November 10, 2013 by soundwave Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/81206-cockroach-backpack-app/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

lumpenprol Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 cyborgs have the right to children? i guess many experiments we do "for science!" are based on some level of animal cruelty. that said, I winced when he snipped off his antennae didn't seem like it worked all that well?

Hoodie Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 you know how you get kids into neuroscience? thought experiments. it gets them curious--they look for answers and see that there are many possibilities, so they are inspired to read more and more, maybe even get into research as a career. you don't get kids into neuroscience by mutilating cockroaches. fucking lol @ socially retarded people in academia Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/81206-cockroach-backpack-app/#findComment-2090991 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR4 Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) disturbing but then again, I'm only a historian.
