  This article talks about a new science break through that could potentially allow scientists to control neurons in the brain and detect the activity in different parts. Though this isn't directly a TOK reference, it is interesting to see how the scientific method applies here and think about whether these scientists are performing their experiments to get the results they expected. It also shows current evolution of understanding that proves that what we believed yesterday was not necessarily true.
