What do you get when you combine microorganisms and fiber optics? Mind control over mice and rats.
A fiber optic cable is connected into a living mouse or rat with the spliced genes allowing scientists to expose different neurons to different lights.
from PHYSORG:
An optical fiber backbone (red) provides broadband connections between the central offices and antenna base stations.
Then, the base stations wirelessly transmit 5-mm-wave (60 GHz) signals to customers. Within buildings and homes, the short-range wireless signals can provide high-speed connectivity (faster than 1 Gb/s) for a variety of wireless, high-bandwidth communication devices.
