(U) PURPOSE: To provide the status of DIA's participation in the conduct or support of intramural or extramural human subject research. 2. (U) BACKGROUND: The memorandum opposite provides the DIA response to requirements set forth in ESO tasker #710 which requests DIA to indicate whether the Agency conducts or provides funding support for intramural or extramural research which involves human subject participation. Response opposite (enclosure 1) has been prepared for DR signature and forwarding to Director, Environmental and Life Sciences, Office of the Director, Defense Research and Engineering. 3. DISCUSSION: a. (U) A thorough review by all elements of the DIA has determined that only one program (Project STAR GATE) falls within the definition of human subject research. This research is conducted in two areas: in-house activities conducted by DIA civilian personnel and external research activities conducted under DIA contract with the Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC). b. (S/NF) Both the DIA and DoD General Counsels have determined that the STAR GATE Project constitutes experimentation on human subjects. As required by Procedure 13 of DoD Directive 5240.1-R, approval for project activities has been granted by the Deputy Secretary of Defense. DIA personnel involved with in- house investigations are required to sign a Statement of Consent form approved by the DIA General Counsel. The assignment is voluntary and employees may temporarily choose not to participate in the project at specific times, or permanently discontinue participation at any time. There have been no demonstrated risks of permanent or temporary injury (including physical or psychological) to project personnel beyond risks to which they would ordinarily be exposed in their daily lives. c. (S/NF) External research conducted by SAIC as required by the current contract is in full compliance with all applicable laws, Federal regulations and DoD instructions. SAIC has provided formal written assurance to DIA that they are in full compliance. In addition, all research plans/activities are constantly monitored by SAIC's Institutional Review Board to ensure that all applicable Federal laws, directives, and regulations are fully and consistently implemented. 4. (U) RECOMMENDATION: That DR sign memorandum opposite. 1 Enclosure 1. DIA Tasker ESO #0710 WORKING PAPER Approved For ‘SECRET’ :¢ aa a) id

The subsequently evoked behavior is observed and any of the clectrical stimulation. FSB is most frequently employed in the US and Sovict Union to aid the neurological conditions of tremor and spasticity found in patients with hyperkincsis, epilepsy and Parkinson's disease. The Sovicts are reported to have used ESB on “normal’’ subjects, those who arc not ill or otherwise impaircd, to elicit a behavior response. This study _attempts to assess the status of Soviet research in this ficld and to gauge the progress, if any, they may have made in applying ESB techniques to controlling human behavior. CONCLUSIONS ‘It is believed that in the USSR normal human beings have been used for electrical brain stimula- tion experiments. The Soviets appear to have loss stringent regulations on scientific experiments with normal human beings than does the West and therefore haye an advantage, since any breakthough in understanding how ESB affects complex human behavior will most likely result from experiments with human subjects. A survey of Sovict research on_ electrical brain stimulation to date has produced no evidence that the Soviets “have been able to develop methods of controlling complex human behavior through ESB, nor that they have found significant applications of electrical brain stimulation techniques beyond standard therapeutic uses. SUMMARY {In 1968 it was reported that the Soviets were studying the effects of electrical stimulation on normal human brains. This report, and ensuing re- ports, prompted speculation that the Soviets were attempting to devclop methods of controlling an individual’s behavior or motor responses. The Soviets declared in 1951 that one aim of their physiological research programs was to devclop the ability to damage, repair, and control the ccntral nervous system at will. During the late 1950s and carly 1960s when Soviet scientific research changed rapidly, it was noted that the Soviets revitalized their interest SD/75-7 anna Jul 75 Approved For Release 2003/09/10 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000600340001-4

Most Western neurophysiologists believe that even though the flexion of a limb could be radio controlled and an emotional state artifically induced, the sequences of responses and adaptation to the environment depend on well established intracerebral mechanisms whose complexity cannot be duplicated by electrical stimulation of the brain. Unique possibilities for studying the ncurophysio- logical bases of various mental phenomena are pro- vided by the method of implanted electrodes. No anatomical structures have been identified by cither US or Soviet scientists which “‘control’” memory thereby allowing localization of this center. The currently favored Sovict position regarding the location of memory is similar to that of the US, namely, the “functional” centers of memory are located in a variety of places in the brain and operate in conccrt. Bekhtereva reportedly has found, from stimulation of the thalamic region, a tendency toward cuphoria on the part of patients which some have interpreted as the opposite to a fear center. The experiment reported by 12 Approved For Release 2003/09/1Q ¢fabAuit P96 -00792R000600340001-4 Zavalova in which purportedly the fear of pilots in stressful situations was climinated was most likely an attempt to further corroborate evidence of a fear center. A neurophysiologist who visited the Institute of Experimental Medicine in Leningrad reported in 1972 that Bekhtereva’s group was planning to treat mental disorders with electrode implants and noted that this was a tool of great potential danger. Bekhtereva has recently stated that they arc treating schizophrenia with electrical stimulation of the brain. During this treatment, electrodes are implanted into the brains of patient who then Icaves the hospital for 6 months. After the 6 month pcriod, the patient returns for neeessary follow-up treatment. She mentioned that epilepsy may be treated by the same procedure. No further details were given. Although clectrodes have been implanted in the brains of epileptic patients in the US for treatment purposes, the implantation of electrodes in the brains of patients suffering from schizophrenia has thus far only been used in clinical research to help clarify the nature of schizophrenia. In essence, the usc of ESB to “treat” schizophrenia is without precedence in the West. (SECRET) (NO FOREIGN DISSEM) SD/75-7 Jul 75
