@dr.cal.ur.science.pal: The 2026 Nobel Prize was announced today and it’s a genetics thing!!! Yay!! Mind controlled mice!!!! #Science #stem #nobelprize
Every time I hear about a Nobel prize winner these days: “A doctor in Switzerland gave sea weed AIDS and now they’re using it as a brake fluid for the Mars rover”

Can I ask why is this winning Nobel now? Optogenetics has been a thing for over a decade

I completely support science, but mankind has a habit of taking research done to help humans, and turn it into a destructive force.

Wow, this is groundbreaking. Also scary af considering how tech is moving right now. I hope ethics and laws are put in place at the same speed research goes before it is decided whether we go all in or not with this fascinating field

Tbh seeing how many people are misinterpreting optogenetics as actual mind control in the comments, I think it’s irresponsible for you to word it that way. You’re inciting fear not curiosity and completely misrepresenting optogenetics

haven't seen you for a while, insanely interesting research. A few years ago I realized that our body is an extremely intricate mechanism rather than just a bunch of flesh and my life hasn't been the same since. Love your content.

And this is one of many reasons why studying all organisms is important. Nobody at the time could have predicted that a studying lowly single called algae would lead to advances in neuroscience, yet here we are. This is one of the reasons scientists study fruit flies, roundworms, yeast, zebra fish, slime molds, etc. Not only do they offer insights into basic biology, but often lead to advances in medicine in unforeseen and unexpected ways

so it doesnt actually control the brain but it can activate certain aspects of a person. like make you mad or happy you would still be who you are and react as you normally wood they just using light to trigger certain responses.
