In fact, I think the university did fund it, but it was under a NASA grant to establish the viability of certain organisms to survive on Mars. Really. I am not kidding. So this researcher has an entrepreneurial brain--or partner--and applies the thing to what is fast becoming the domain for obsessive compulsives: wine!

While I know there is a lot of interest in finding the answer to headaches, seems like a lot of expensive reseach for very little gain in this case. My wife used to get headaches after just a couple of sips of wine. After a hysterectomy and some hormonal changes, bottabing... headaches are mostly a thing of the past- migraines too. I think research such as this should be privately funded, (or from industry sources). I hope Berkely is not footing the bill on this "gadget". WP I just read this article about an hour ago.
