I'm talking with the head of the department of intellectual property at my university tomorrow at 3PM to see about getting a patent.

Nondestructive, nontoxic, long-term, highly specific measurement of action potential activity on a neuron by neuron basis.
Transhumanism starts with humans, and if this goes as I plan, it's a potential big step forward. So, you bet your ass I am.

I'm nervous as fuck, too. Hold me, /sci/,

Yes.
And it's compact, as in, the scale of the things in contact with the neurons are on the .01uM scale, compared to the 1.1uM diameter of an average neuron. That means you can do a lot of them together, on adjacent neurons. Like in the spinal cord.

Potentially a complete real time modeling of spinal cord activity with individual neuron resolution.

Any keywords/people I should keep a look-out for?

>> No.1731393

>>1731335
Yes, in a mouse. I monitored twenty adjacent neurons in a mouse spine for proof of concept, and my method worked perfectly without a huge amount of interference from neighbors. Because of the physics behind it, the quantity you measure falls off very fast with increasing distance. You end up seeing around an 8th of the intensity for nearest neighbors, and nothing (that I cared about, far too small to measure) for second-nearest.

>>1731339
I'll post it on here once I get everything straightened around patent-wise. Kinda loath to post keywords because the method behind it is so simple, a person of average intelligence would probably be able to make the connection with a series of like four nouns.

The implication being, you can iterate this for as many neurons as you want, so proof of concept in 20 is essentially proof of concept in an entire system.

Forgot to include that part.

I came up with this in the shower about two weeks ago, went the lab I work in (lolgradstudent saying "my lab") and got preliminary positive results (in a mouse) within four hours of having the idea.

The aforementioned prototype I started the following day. She's healing nicely. Two weeks later I'm initiating the patent process and pushing ahead.

I am going as fast as I possibly can, lol

How expensive is the process? How long do the sensors last in vivo? Do you have a flashcool method of representing the data yet?

Have you heard of "optiogenetics"

I don't really get it, but it seems like it might do a similar thing as what you are talking about, except better.

>> No.1731513

>>1731471
The sensors are incredibly stable in vivo (and anywhere else, for that matter). The sensing molecule is shown by a number of papers to be stable at biological conditions, and we (read: no organism) has a mechanism to degrade it.

It costs almost nothing. It requires a reusable catalytic surface and consumes only a very cheap reagent.

Proof of concept experiment cost probably less than $50.

not useful for in-organism use. It has been suggested that the technique, involving fluorescent proteins, alters function...and can also be toxic. It's also not feasible for long term.

Plz do keep /sci/ informed. I'll keep an eye out, and this really does deserve its own thread (lol, OC coming out of a lulzy pic thread).

Also what sort of data visualization are you thinking of using?

>> No.1731571

I think I just figured it out. I'll let you take the credit, though, as I've had my thunder stolen a few times by copypastas. If this works, then you've achieved something that I personally think is pretty incredible.

As for me, I'm a high school and college drop-out, self-educated, who planned to be a youth pastor but instead ended up with a teaching job at a Christian college teaching a course on the Trinity based on several papers I've written.
