Magnetic Stimulation of Neural Tissue

When testing out designs for Mykro Dot LED earrings in the late 70s, I discovered that using a an earring wire to carry 1.7 Volts (20 ma) for a couple of hours a day was enough to cause the tissue around the earring piercing to thicken in three to five days. Not wanting to further expose myself to legal action, I opted for a less elegant solution for earrings.

A classmate asked me about stimulating the brain by using electromagnetic pulses as a possible thesis project.  I am all for pushing the limits of cybernetic technologiesX. The block diagram below is representative of interesting research.  Unless you are a budding sociopath testing EMF/EMP technology in its current state of development on yourself, people you know, or strangers, resonates as an extremely bad idea.

Addendum: I just came across this site when researching Helmholtz coils that was all about magnetic healing (Mesmer, anyone?).   There may be something to this in the medical profession for treating Alzheimer’s.  But it still seems like a Radium cure to me.
