Martin’s Comments (group member since May 09, 2014)

Martin’s comments from the O.R. Pagan hosts a Q&A about "The First Brain" group.

Persinger's work is inspired, though often underestimated. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on those papers.

Dr. Pagan, I'm happy to have the privilege to be the first to pose a question.

My question relates to the effect electromagnetic radiation has on planarian brains.

TES or tACS brain scanning techniques use electrical current to stimulate, or affect certain areas of mammalian brains, having the effect, alternately, of both shutting down specific groups of neurons and of causing them to alter their patterns.

Is there a similar effect in planarian brains? And if so, could research into those effects in planarians not drastically improve our understanding of the relationship between em radiation and neural activity?
