Very interesting. It’s always amazing how our entire perception of reality is just a series of complex biochemical and electrical reactions in a piece of meat.

I am not sure I want to know how they plan to electrically stimulate the region. It probably includes the use of a long needle/probe.

Or possibly by trans-cranial stimulation (electro-magnetic freqs)

It's almost certainly this. My favorite instance of this is using TMS to turn people into sociopaths: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0028393221001093
