The Nobel Prize
@NobelPrizeOct 5
“There is a big picture that brings it all into relief and my hope is that we can increase empathy and understanding,” says 2026 medicine laureate Karl Deisseroth. As a medical student, Deisseroth completed part of his training at a psychiatric clinic. He was struck by the patients’ suffering and their need for help. At the same time, he began to wonder how the brain could function so differently from one person to another. Deisseroth was awarded this year's medicine prize, together with Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel, for discoveries leading to optogenetics – a biological technique making it possible to switch the activity of individual nerve cells in a living brain on or off. Optogenetics is now helping us understand more about how nerve cells shape memories, emotions and behaviour in the living brain. Learn more about the 2026 medicine prize: bit.ly/4ru82ml

I’m so delighted! Karl gave a talk @NYU circa 2009. His excitement was electric. It was evident he believed what we all know now- he was on to something revolutionary. Thank you @KarlDeisseroth for the scientific set up for so many come-ups. Congratulations on your Nobel Prize!

After being on many scientists’ shortlists for years, the 2026 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has recognized optogenetics — a technology that allows researchers to control the brain’s neurons with pulses of light go.nature.com/4jo5dRN

Medicine Nobel awarded for brain ‘switch’ that controls neurons with light

Nature - Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel win the 2026 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their work on optogenetics, which has revolutionized neuroscience.

It was only a question of when, not whether... I had the honor of working with @KarlDeisseroth, my postdoc mentor. Karl had completely changed the face of neuroscience, while remaining a super nice guy - neither of the two is trivial!

Ever wonder why you can't remember your earliest experiences? Our new study, led by Benita Jin, Abbie Yu and @michaelgongwer, shows how the retrosplenial cortex stores traces of forgotten infant memories that can be reawakened in adulthood—but only under the right conditions.

How does the brain infer emotional meaning from experience, bodily signals, and context? In a new Science Perspective, we discuss how “internal emotion models” may bridge animal and human studies and inform new approaches to treating anxiety and trauma science.org/eprint/NGF5TVSTB…

The hidden logic of emotion

Internal emotion models unify research across species and spark fresh ideas for treating anxiety and trauma
