Thought Controlled Implants

There have been recent strides in prototype technologies that are aimed at the medical industry, where a user or a patient would be able to administer medications, or proteins straight into the brain from a small implant that would be potentially thought controlled. How amazing would it be to feel some aspect of illness coming on, and then just thinking about it makes it go away? That could be possible with so many diseases or even the common headache could be defeated with just a though. The technology works in test runs and has some really cool principles behind it. Check out the report at the Nature Communications website, or a much easier to read article on the report at Gizmag. Essentially when a signal is sent to this implant, either by thought or by a mental state that is subconscious, it creates a protein that then can diffuse into the brain and be easily detected in the body. Potentially you could have a medication released right onto the site of chronic pain or blockers onto an area that is causing a seizure with just a simple thought that would activate this implant, which would signal to the body or another implant to do something.
