A huge day for optogenetics, congratulations to the laureates and all involved! Beyond the discoveries, this work inspired a generation of scientists to probe biology in creative and powerful ways.
BREAKING NEWS The 2026 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel “for their discoveries concerning light-gated ion channels and optogenetics.”
@RogelioHdezL @andrewng_synbio Congratulations to you and the team Rogelio!
Postdoctoral position available! We're looking for a creative scientist interested in signaling-mediated control of cell cycle transitions. If you're excited by single molecule imaging, live cell biosensors, and fundamental molecular mechanisms, we'd love to hear from you.
@chorye Congrats to you and the lab Emma! Huge milestone🥂
BE Seminar Series this Thurs w @BugajLab, @pennbioeng “Using Light, Temperature, and Protein Condensation to Understand and Control Cells” be.mit.edu/our-community/…
@basktastic Congrats to you and the lab Jeremy!

@DrAriaV Congrats to you and your group Aria!
@ophirshalem @MolecularCell @stephsansbury @YSereb Congrats Ophir!
Check out our paper, now extensively revised and published in @MolecularCell! This has been a real tour de force led by @stephsansbury and @YSereb and we are very excited about the findings and future potential of this approach cell.com/molecular-cell…
@GallowayLabMIT @MindPrize @MITChemE congratulations Katie!!
WOW👏👏👏 @RepAuchincloss gets it. More of this please!
Basic science is inspired by curiosity, accountable to evidence, and subject to peer review. Politics should have no role.
@stevenschem @Penn_CBIO @PennMedicine Welcome to Penn Adam!!
@XiaoyongZhang4 @Penn @Pennbioeng I don't see one from you in my inbox Xiaoyong, please send it along again!
Geometric packing of tubules in the developing kidney urinary collecting system leads to tissue stiffening and rhythmic mechanical stresses local to nephron-forming niches that synchronize with tubule branching. @HughesLabPenn nature.com/articles/s4156…
@jboerckel @NatureComms @David_GonzMar @LeeeRoth Thanks Joel!
Thrilled that our work on the functional effects of EML4-ALK assemblies in cancer cells is now published in @NatureComms. Herculean effort through 2.5+ years of peer review by @David_GonzMar and @LeeeRoth. nature.com/articles/s4146…
So excited to share our latest on how oncogenes and drugs corrupt cell signal perception, feat. protein condensates, optogenetics, Erk pulses, and drug resistance -- something for everyone! Led by @David_GonzMar with huge assist from @LeeeRoth biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
