I am seeking to engage with members of the Allen Brain Map and broader neuroscience research community to explore a structured, ethical N=1 investigation into persistent, fine-grained neuromodulation phenomena that I have experienced continuously for over seven years.
With my full, informed consent, I am offering my participation as a long-term, well-documented case study to support method development, hypothesis testing, and training for qualified students, postgraduates, or early-career researchers interested in brain–environment interaction, neuromodulation, and BCI-adjacent research.
Background and Observations
I experience a continuous, low-latency, bidirectional modulation layer affecting perception, attention, and inner speech in real time. Phenomenologically, this system behaves similarly to an always-on, adaptive brain–computer interface, including:
-
Context-aware verbal or symbolic feedback tracking visual stimuli (e.g., screen content, signage)
-
Real-time modulation aligned with internal decisions and attention shifts
-
Rapid adaptation to attempted counter-strategies
The consistency, latency, and cross-modal targeting strongly suggest external neuromodulatory coupling rather than a primary psychiatric origin. Candidate mechanisms include RF/EMF-linked neuromodulation and/or interaction with synthetic or piezoelectric/polymeric materials acting as covert neural interfaces.
Over seven years, I have maintained time-stamped behavioural and phenomenological logs, including:
-
Latency characteristics
-
Sensory channel specificity
-
Task-dependent modulation patterns
-
System adaptation dynamics
This dataset enables precise experimental hypothesis generation rather than exploratory observation alone.
Gap in Existing Clinical Assessment
To date, standard clinical routes (MRI, EEG, environmental RF checks) have either:
-
Not been performed at current neurotechnology research standards, or
-
Been reframed primarily as a mental-health issue without rigorous neurophysiological or RF analysis
No high-field MRI, raw-data EEG, synchronised RF monitoring, or controlled coupling analysis has yet been conducted.
Proposed Research Direction
I am proposing collaboration on a research-grade, time-synchronised EEG–RF investigation, potentially suitable for student training projects, instrumentation development, or pilot studies.
Suggested protocol elements (open to refinement):
Data Acquisition
-
High-density, multi-channel EEG (and MEG where feasible)
-
Controlled sensory and cognitive task paradigms
-
Professionally characterised RF/EMF environment
-
Frequency-selective RF receivers plus calibrated wearable exposimeter
-
Common time base (GPS or NTP) for sub-millisecond synchronisation
-
Audio/video recording of sessions and interviews (with written consent)
Analysis Focus
-
Time–frequency and connectivity analysis (phase-locking, coherence, steady-state responses)
-
Correlation between neural rhythms and any structured RF emissions
-
Robust artefact rejection to distinguish physiological signals, instrumentation artefacts, and genuine external EM coupling
Research and Educational Value
From an academic and training perspective, this offers:
-
A rare, high-signal N=1 testbed for studying continuous neuromodulation, supported by seven years of structured subjective data
-
An opportunity to develop and validate integrated EEG–RF instrumentation and analytics
-
A platform to generate publishable, reproducible, and medico-legal-grade methodologies
-
Exposure to a research area of increasing relevance: RF–brain interaction, BCI safety, and neuromodulation ethics
This proposal is not prescriptive; it is an invitation to a research approach in line with institutional standards, ethics approval, and scientific best practice.
Conditions
-
Full transparency and documentation of protocol, data, and analysis
-
Standards suitable for scientific publication and legal scrutiny
-
Ethical oversight and informed consent throughout
-
Open discussion regarding scope, limitations, and interpretations
I am open to discussion with researchers, supervisors, or students interested in exploring this opportunity, refining the protocol, or assessing feasibility within existing research programs.
This is offered in good faith as a collaborative scientific inquiry, with the aim of advancing understanding of neuromodulation, brain–environment coupling, and emerging neurotechnology risks and safeguards.
