Karl Deisseroth
Karl Deisseroth (born 18 November 1971) M.D., Ph.D. is the D. H. Chen Professor of Bioengineering and of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University. He earned his A.B. in biochemical sciences from Harvard University and his M.D./Ph.D. in neuroscience from Stanford University in 1998, and completed medical internship and psychiatry residency at Stanford Medical School. He is known for creating and developing the technologies of CLARITY and optogenetics, and for applying integrated optical and genetic strategies to study normal neural circuit function as well as dysfunction in neurological and psychiatric disease. He has led his laboratory at Stanford University since 2004, serves as an attending physician at Stanford Hospital and Clinics, and has been affiliated with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) since 2009.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hhmi.org/scientists/karl-deisseroth )〕 Since 2014 he is a foreign Adjunct Professor at Sweden's prestigious Karolinska medical institute.
==Research==
In 2005 Deisseroth's laboratory, including graduate students Edward Boyden and Feng Zhang, published the first demonstration of the use of microbial opsin genes to achieve optogenetic control of neurons, allowing reliable control of action potentials with light at millisecond precision. Deisseroth named this field "optogenetics" in 2006 and followed up with optogenetic technology development work, leading to many applications including to psychiatry and neurology. In 2010, the journal Nature Methods named optogenetics "Method of the Year". In 2013, Deisseroth was senior author of a paper on a new technology named CLARITY, with first author postdoctoral fellow in his lab Kwanghun Chung, which makes biological tissues such as mammalian brains translucent and accessible to molecular probes.〔(''Brains as Clear as Jell-O for Scientists to Explore'' ) April 10, 2013 New York Times〕
On November 29, 2015, he was awarded the Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences.〔 https://breakthroughprize.org/Laureates/2 〕
