An off switch to pain?

Summary:

Well at first glance this may seem to be a little bit fictional, But there is a way to do this.chemists at LMU Munich, in collaboration with colleagues in Berkeley and Bordeaux, have now shown in laboratory experiments that it is possible to inhibit the activity of pain-sensitive neurons using an agent that acts as a photosensitive switch.In their experiments, the researchers exploited the fact that QAQ can percolate through endogenous ion channels to get the molecule into nerve cells. All this is acording to biology news dot com.


Critque:

I thin if we can master that no one would be hurt.


Impact:

It could impact emo people when they cut themselves.
