In principle, it could because if you would target the light sensitivity to just the right kind of cell... let's say cell X that goes from point A to point B that you know causes symptom relief of a particular kind, then you're in business. You can have that be the only cell that's light sensitive.

You're not gonna affect any of the other cells, the larynx and the pharynx and the projections passing through. So that's the hope, that's the opportunity. The problem, is that we don't yet have that level of specific knowledge. We don't know, okay, it's the cell starting in point A going to point B that relieves this particular symptom.

I mean, that's effectively what we already do with the vagus nerve stimulation, the doctor in this case. And I have this in some of my patients in the clinic. I do vagus nerve stimulation. I talk to them. I say how I go through the symptoms. I use the psychiatric interview to elicit their internal states. And then I have a... radio frequency controller that I can dial in.

Through a couple steps, but yeah. And I can turn up the frequency, I can turn up the intensity, all with the radio frequency and control, and then it's reprogrammed or redosed, and then the patient can then leave at this altered dose. In most patients, I don't expect an immediate What I do is I increase the dose until a next level up while asking the patient for side effects.

Can you still breathe okay? Can you still swallow okay? And I can hear their voice as well. And I can get a sense. And you're looking at their face. And I'm looking at their face. And so I can get a sense, is there a, am I in a, still in a safe side effect regime? And then, you know, I stop at a particular point

that looks safe, and then patient goes home, comes back a month later, and I get the report on how things were over that month.
