 Doctor in London with a background in public\n   and global health\, curre

  Description:\n   """When Isaac* arrived at our Emergency department in a 
 critical\n   condition\, the last place we thought to investigate was with
 in the\n   Deep Brain Stimulator (DBS) inside his head. Medical device fai
 lures\n   or 'medical hacks' are not constituents of practitioner training
 \, and\n   the consequences were immediately apparent as we attempted to c
 are for\n   the patient [1]. Isaac's recovery was due to the resetting of 
 the DBS\n   settings by the programmer\, and not as a result of medical at
 tention.\n\n   The use of implanted neuromodulation is increasing in both 
 the medical\n   and consumer space\, yet the telemetric nature of these cl
 osed looped\n   systems expose them to a range of vulnerabilities [2-4]. U
 nlike hacks\n   on insulin pumps and pacemakers\, there is currently no re
 search on\n   hacks of brain-computer interfaces [1\, 5].\n\n   Interactio
 ns between hardware and neuroanatomy invoke a range of\n   unexpected symp
 toms - for Isaac the DBS error induced intense emotions\n   and motor dist
 urbance. An understanding of these biotechnological\n   syndromes requires
  expertise from computer scientists\, engineers\,\n   biomedical experts a
 nd hackers who can expose system flaws. We bring\n   this case to DEFCON t
 o foster collaboration between the medical and\n   hacking community\, to 
 improve the care of patients like Isaac\, who\n   present with medical eme
 rgencies resulting from technological\n   failures.\n\n   *Psuedonym\n   "
