dr. nirenberg is the first to have cracked it. dr. realized that not only was it useful for a stepping stone to figuring out how the brain works, but it had huge potential application. the way it would be implemented in the real world for a patient has two parts. one part is a device that could be worn like glasses that would take images in and sends the code in the form of light pulses. it can change the redaction. when you shine a light on a certain gene, it causes the cell to fire an electrical pulse. you picture that you could pulse it in the pattern of a neural code and it would send images up to the brain. >> dr. nirenberg's next step is to hold human trials to prove her technology can restore vision. patients like rosemary would be injected with the light sensitive gene and then be shown images in the neural code. dr. nirenberg: the best is to have someone be able to see faces, to create contact with other people. but even if it does not work the first time, just knowing i have the code and pass it on to the next generation, so

dr. nirenberg is seeking fda approval to start clinical trials of the technology.e tech story is over according to one veteran tech journalist. we will tell you why. ♪ emily: cofounder of wired magazine has spent the better part of three decades writing about, investing in and using technology. this week in a new post, he wrote the text story is over. he says it is time to move on to the next big thing that will shape our future, just like technology has for the past years. they had launched a new company in partnership with media in order to find and follow the big -- that the next big story. i caught up with him and asked, what is the next big narrative? john: i did follow the tech story for 30 years because i thought it was not being well covered or given a full view and the story of tech has changed our entire society and we know that that continues, however, it it is no longer the next story over the horizon, the one that may be changing everything and i am interested in that story. what is the equivalent today of the tech story when we launched "wired" magazi
