The X-Mice - Geenimuunneltu hiiri erottaa enemmän värejä. Saman voisi teoriassa tehdä ihmisille.
Looking for Madam Tetrachromat - Joillakin naisilla (ehkä 2-3 prosentilla) saattaa olla tetrakromaattinen näkö, jolloin he erottavat enemmän värisävyjä kuin tavikset. Jos siis sisustusta suunniteltaessa mies ei näe mitään eroa pinkinvalkoisen ja roosanvalkoisen välillä, sille voi olla selvä syy: nainen on mutantti, joka näkee enemmän värisävyjä.
Would there be any practical advantages to tetrachromacy? Dr. Jordan notes that a mother could more easily spot when her children were pale or flushed, and therefore ill. Mrs. M reports that she has always been able to match even subtle colors from memory -- buying a bag, for example, to match shoes she hasn't laid eyes on for months. And computers, color monitors, and the Internet raise a whole raft of possibilities. Just as someone with normal three-color vision surfs rings around a dichromat on the Internet, a tetrachromat, looking at a special computer screen based on four primary colors rather than the standard three, could theoretically dump data into her head faster than the rest of us.
Impaired emotional processing affects moral judgements
For example, subjects had to say whether they would throw a person in front of a train if doing so would stop the train from barrelling into five workmen, killing all five. In such a situation, most people would find it morally unacceptable to push someone to his or her death – even if doing so would save the lives of others. And this was the reaction of the healthy participants or those that had injury to brain regions excluding the VMPC. But people with damage to the VMPC showed a willingness to take this type of "utilitarian" action.
