Optogenetics क्या है, जिसके लिए 3 Scientists को मिला Physiology-Medicine का Nobel Prize 2026?

Описание: What if light could control the signals inside our brain? Scientists Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel’s groundbreaking work on optogenetics has transformed neuroscience by allowing researchers to control genetically modified cells using light.


In this video, we explain:

• What is optogenetics and how does it work?

• How did opsins and Channelrhodopsin-2 make this technology possible?

• How can scientists control neurons, memories, fear, sleep and behaviour?

• How did Francis Crick’s idea influence this research?

• Can optogenetics help treat blindness and improve hearing technologies?


Watch this explainer by Indian Express Hindi to understand the science behind one of the most fascinating breakthroughs in neuroscience.
