In optogenetics, scientists control neurons by stimulating them with light, potentially unlocking breakthroughs for conditions such as dementia, depression and blindness.
Three scientists won the 2026 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine last Monday (Oct 5, 2026) for their work in the field: American neurologist and Stanford University professor Dr Karl Deisseroth, 54; German biophysicist and Humboldt University of Berlin professor Dr Peter Hegemann, 71; and German biophysicist and University of Wuerzburg professor Dr Georg Nagel, 73.

在光遗传学中，科学家通过光刺激来控制神经元，这有可能为痴呆症、抑郁症和失明等疾病带来突破。
三位科学家于上周一（2026 年 10 月 5 日）因其在该领域的工作而荣获 2026 年诺贝尔生理学或医学奖：美国神经学家、斯坦福大学教授卡尔·戴瑟罗斯博士（54 岁）；德国生物物理学家、柏林洪堡大学教授彼得·黑格曼博士（71 岁）；以及德国生物物理学家、维尔茨堡大学教授格奥尔格·纳格尔博士（73 岁）。
