It's as cool as it sounds

Summary: Researchers have constructed the first gene network that can be controlled by our thoughts. Scientists have developed a novel gene regulation method that enables thought-specific brainwaves to control the conversion of genes into proteins (gene expression). The inspiration was a game that picks up brainwaves in order to guide a ball through an obstacle course.


I thought it was really interesting that meditative states induced 'very high' levels of SEAP--but I'm not so sure I fully understand what SEAP is...anyone care to elaborate?
