Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is It Possible To Induce Savant Syndrome Into A Person Without Having Them Undergo Brain Damage?
Is it possible to induce savant syndrome into a person without having them undergo brain damage? Savant Syndrome basically disrupts the neural network of the brain. So, can we create a machine to disrupt the neural network without the risk of brain damage?
With present medical treatment, I do not think savant syndrome can be induced, may be in future, it might be possible, but it has its own ethical issues.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Jagadeesan, Psychiatrist
