Obama to announce $100M for brain research
President Obama on Tuesday will unveil a $100 million initiative to research the human brain, in hopes of unlocking further understanding of brain disorders.
The initiative, dubbed Brain Research Through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies, or BRAIN, "aims to help researchers find new ways to treat, cure, and even prevent brain disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, and traumatic brain injury," the White House said.

What is brain.
My brain hurts.
Mmmmmmmm braaaaains
This initiative will help many humans with neurological disorders. It will also provide "jobs" for many humans who have educated themselves and therefore are very deserving of work and income.
No thank you @ Joey, no ones touching this head...
Enough damage has been caused by the medical community to society
He needs his brain researched
I am a giant brain.
Can they start with the Republican senate?
Oh Bobcat, where are you? This is the perfect topic for one of your jokes... Lmao! 😉
@ Mary:
@ bobcat is over at the NK thread, explaining why Madama Butterfly always dies at the end of the opera.
@ Mary:
Butterfly's reason: "chi non vive con onore muore con onore."
A man went in for a brain transplant operation and was offered a choice of two brains by the surgeon. He could choose either the Architect's brain which would cost him $10,000 or the Politician's which was $100,000.
"Does that mean that the politician's brain is much better than the Architect's?" exclaimed the clearly puzzled man.
"not exactly" replied the surgeon, "the politician's has never been used."
And a way we go! That was too smooth @ Katman 🙂 Well done!
A brain walks into a bar and says, "I'll have a pint of beer please."
The barman looks at him and says "Sorry, I can't serve you."
"Why not?" askes the brain.
"You're already out of your head."
Well... can't win em all @ bobcat (in a hat)© Wa Wa Wa Wa ... Still the coolest with that last one tho 😉
Among other brain studies, yet another will be done to determine what motivates humans to compusivley spend money that is not thiers.
I hope the cure for Congress, who authorizes such expenditures, will happen sooner rather than later.
Who signs up for testing for this kind of study? Someone who obviously isnt using their god givin brains, thats who.
i wonder if they will take walt disney's head outtah of the freezer???
Chrissy:
Presumably those with Alzheimer’s disease, epilepsy, and traumatic brain injury.
Lmao @ Rascal. And @ banasy, do these people have any say in this?
Noooo, mr. president. That $100 million is foreign aid for north korea!
