Comment on A neurologist who hacked his brain and almost lost his mind (2016)parent

Certainly a unique experiment, however behind the scenes things were let down by poor experimental procedures, minimal experiment designs, outrageously inaccurate data analysis, and poor recording equipment.

Yup, it's unfortunate that he took this kind of risk without having his t's crossed and i's dotted. The experiment could have been much more informative.

My personal big disappointment was seeing objectively false claims being made at the society for neuroscience conference. It made it clear to me that the work was not being done in good faith.
