Wonderful news for many families that have a loved one in such a state.
Hopefully they will be able to expand on this, and help these people rejoin ‘life’.

Thanks ND.
I wonder if it would work on Ted Kennedy, “Cut and Run” Murtha, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, or Michael Moore?

Gee I wonder if this technology was used on Terry Shivio {sp?}, what we may have learned about her actual condition?

"DBS may be adapted to benefit at least some patients in the minimally conscious state." I was looking to see what funding DARPA has in this, but found little. The implications for tweaking this into behavior modification or into the anticipated brain-machine interface are great.
(I instantly thought of democrats, specifically that photo of Terizzah "crazy" Kerry)

Thanks for posting. Very interesting. My mom had DBS implants for relief from Parkinson. Very positive results for minimizing tremor.
