@drnereide.bsky.socialLaboratories worldwide now use this light to map circuits of pain, reward and memory.
It has clarified mechanisms of depression, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s and opens clinical paths, such as restoring sight with light-sensitive proteins.
The brain is no longer a black box.
@drnereide.bsky.socialFrom a light-seeking alga came the key to controlling single neurons in the living brain.
Hegemann and Nagel’s protein, turned by Deisseroth into an optical switch, activates circuits in ms and shows how memories, emotions and actions arise.
An epochal leap for #neuroscience.
