Sliding back in here. First of all a very belated thank you for all these wonderful answers! They were incredibly useful in helping me figure out what the heck I'm doing. Unfortunately for y'all it's now time for the next round hahaha
Stephen's going to have got himself a job as a research assistant in some neurological/neurotech facility. Could we hash out what sort of project he may have been hired on to assist with? It'll help a lot to have a solid idea just in case it's anything I can interact with directly/have him discuss with others - or any career progression path I can plot around it.
Also, how quickly will Stephen realistically be able to gain trust within the company/gain permission to use equipment for his own research etc? If he's constantly proactive and clearly a lot more experienced with neurological research than his job role gives him credit for.
I'm tailoring his history (if this is okay) to suggest he completed his training in neurology with a view to later undertaking medical training to become a wetware surgeon specialising in the neurotech field but that this path was interrupted by an accident in which he badly damaged his hands - and then didn't get them fixed. If asked he'll elaborate that this is because he wanted to chart how his brain interacted with/was affected or changed by the injury & recovery given that extended nerve damage-related research is so rare now due to the advances in medicine. SO. That's the bullshit story of a daring eccentric neuroscience nerd that he'll be giving to anyone who sideyes him at the office, but - and here's question 2 - is it reasonable to assume provided that I plot this out with the characters in question that we can design our own apps etc via the implant? And if so would it be feasible that they whip up a programme that would allow Stephen to falsify the data he's supposedly collected? (By feasible I mean does it cost Money to design things like that as an independent or if you've got the expertise can you just dive straight into coding things?)
If faking the data with a little help from his not-quite-friends isn't possible and he instead approached Morningstar about it, would they help him with this?
That's it for this round of questions, I'm so sorry I didn't even manage to number them or really even separate them out from the text walls of my musings this time. Thank you so much you're wonders and I deeply appreciate your time and all the effort
