| Obama Seeking to Boost Study of Human Brain (Posted on 2/18/13 at 11:44 am)
quote:
The Obama administration is planning a decade-long scientific effort to examine the workings of the human brain and build a comprehensive map of its activity, seeking to do for the brain what the Human Genome Project did for genetics.
quote:
The project, which the administration has been looking to unveil as early as March, will include federal agencies, private foundations and teams of neuroscientists and nanoscientists in a concerted effort to advance the knowledge of the brain’s billions of neurons and gain greater insights into perception, actions and, ultimately, consciousness.
quote:
The project, which could ultimately cost billions of dollars, is expected to be part of the president’s budget proposal next month.

I remember when Obama ran the first time, stem cell research was a big item he pushed.
I guess since all the additional stem cell research Obama brought tha W prevented brought cures for cancer, parkinson's, and led to the lame walking; it's time to move on to the brain.

Maybe they should study his brain and find out what the hell is wrong with that bastard.

Yep, because it should only take roughly 4 years to discover these cures
