Stanford scientist discusses Nobel Prize-winning work in neuroscience

Stanford University scientist Dr. Karl Deisseroth, who recently won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, joined California Tonight to discuss his groundbreaking work in a revolutionary field in neuroscience that holds promise for treating conditions from autism to schizophrenia. Stanford University scientist Dr. Karl Deisseroth recently won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his groundbreaking work in Optogenetics, a field in neuroscience that uses light to map and control specific parts of the brain. This could potentially transform treatments for neurological disorders such as autism, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, depression, addiction, autism, and schizophrenia. Deissheroth also discussed the potential applications of optogenetics in treating conditions such as Parkinson's, depression and addiction.
