I am sorry, but I don't understant the link. Indeed, some metals are lising  
nearly all electric resistivity near absolute zero temperature, but what that 
to  do with brain reading ? Only cooper ceramics and similar products are 
super  conductors at LN2 temperature, not biological elements. And even a 
biological  super conductor would not produce a brain reading system.
 
I agree with : " The future may be closer than many realize." but where is  
the link with super conductivity ?
