You don't even necessarily need the temporal interference--we got it to work reasonably well in awake, behaving monkeys (where we could measure single-neuron activity directly).

- dr_dshiv 6y agoSir, that is some fantastic science. Hats off. 1. To what extent does your work imply the ability of local field potentials to entrain neural activity? Are the electrical fields strong enough? 2. The fact that humans and the occasional cockatoo/seal are the only animals capable of entraining to a beat is quite remarkable, given that brains are basically collections of powered oscillators (which naturally synchronize and entrain). This makes me think that there must be some elaborate set of defenses against entrainment - - defenses that only humans (and the occasional cockatoo/seal) are able to lower.
