Nobel Prize in Medicine Awarded for Optogenetics
Original: Нобелевскую премию в области физиологии и медицины дали за создание оптогенетики В последние годы наука шагнула настольк
The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded for the creation of optogenetics, a technique that uses light to control neurons. Commenters note that the field has advanced so rapidly that many readers struggle to grasp what the discovery actually means, and attempts are being made to explain it in plain language.
Why now: The announcement of a new Nobel Prize in Medicine always draws wide public attention and curiosity about what the science behind it involves.
