I saw a documentary few weeks back, about scientists using magnests to stimulate the brain. Apparently it can increase your ability to concentrate, and perform tasks with better accuracy. They were thinking of putting them in pilots helmets, giving them a brain boost every so often.

TheTick I'm normally a nice guy but today I have to call you an idiot. The answer is "When researchers study the brains of mice they use magnetic resonance imaging."
So your question was answered just 1 sentance later in that article.
So my question to you why the fuck make the magnet sound as rediculous as you did when it has more scientific signifigance than you can possibly imagine?
Dude, it's not the quantity of threads, it's the quality bro.

haha. i was wondering the same thing. also... "The magnet also will enable researchers to look at larger molecules — such as proteins — in more detail.
For example, Cross is studying the structure of one particular protein present in the flu virus. By using the new magnet to define the shape and chemical properties of the protein, a drug that specifically targets it can be developed, he said.
"So a new era of research is being opened up,"
so maybe you're in luck mg33 and they can cure your std.
