It is interesting that fundamental advances in classical scale optics are still being made.
In addition to monitoring the brains or portions thereof of epilepsy patients, I can see that such technology could be used in a similar manner to monitor the brain activities of the seriously mentally ill as well as those of dementia patients such as those with Alzheimer’s disease.
An even more ambitious program might entail monitoring the brains of military personal, athletes, and even college students in order to study the optimization of intellectual performance both on the job and in the classroom.
