This was so long overdue!... optogenetics truly revolutionized neuroscience and more. Congrats @deisseroth.bsky.social
BREAKING NEWS
The 2026 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel “for their discoveries concerning light-gated ion channels and optogenetics.”

Samuel Alito: We won't overturn Obergefell because it's engendered reliance interests.
Jan Crawford: Well, many people had organized their lives around Roe v. Wade.
Alito: No, they didn't. Women merely had an "abstract" interest in "ideas about the kind of society that they were going to live in."

Congratulations, Karl!
Congratulations to our first Nobel Prize laureate of 2026 🎉
Early this morning Karl Deisseroth found out he was awarded this year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
He seems very happy with the news!

Terrible
NIH funding is now based on politics not science 💔🧪Just heard that an excellent lab with whom I have collaborated for years is closing 😡. Highly skilled specialized technical staff laid off & accumulated rare expertise lost probably never to be rebuilt. Hope & future cures lost. I'm so angry & sad.

Amazing work led by @nickjourjine.bsky.social
showing how the species-specific temporal structure of neonatal vocalizations in deer mice can be traced back to cerebellar anatomy & maybe even to a genomic locus containing plausible gene candidates [e.g ASTN2, well studied by @mbhatten.bsky.social ]🧪
