Interestingly enough, such experiments have already been carried out on mice, and the results were promising, to say the least.
The folks at AsapSCIENCE say that this technology has the potential to treat migraines, depression, personality disorders and even Alzheimer's. And that's pretty cool.
I just hope nobody thinks about using mind control to turn twerking into a national sport or something.
