    Its both wonderful and hilarious that neurosciences were like "how do we sense small signals and deliver big ones at the same time surely that cant be done" and particle physicists are just like "dude that's literally our entire job description"

    An intracranial ultrasound would be incredible especially for rural and underserved areas! Low-cost brain imaging would be an absolute game-changer from stroke triage to enabling neurosurgery in low resource areas by shrinking the minimal amount of equipment needed to perform it.
