Mind Control using light wavelengths

Oh Dear, the paranoids nightmare  - forget the Aluminum caps, hacking and tapped phones. 'They' just need to dose you with DNA that creates the Neuron triggers to respond to the wavelength signals.
You'll eat pure organic and never watch another advert again now will you?


(Nanowerk News) Since the dawn of optogenetics, scientists can turn nerve cells on and off using pulses of light. A research team at the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics in Frankfurt am Main has developed a molecular light switch that makes it possible to control cells more accurately than ever before (see paper in Nature Methods: "A gene-fusion strategy for stoichiometric and co-localized expression of light-gated membrane proteins").
The combination switch consists of two different light-sensitive membrane proteins – one for on, the other for off. The method used by the scientists to connect the two components can be used with different protein variants, making it highly versatile. Optogenetics is a new field of research that aims to control cells using light. To this end, scientists avail of light-sensitive proteins that occur naturally in the cell walls of certain algae and bacteria. They introduce genes with the building instructions for these membrane proteins into the DNA of target cells. Depending on which proteins they use, they can fit cells with on and off switches that react to light of different wavelengths.
