This undated handout photo taken in 2021 and released on October 5, 2026 by the Humboldt University in Berlin shows German scientist Peter Hegemann. The Nobel medicine prize was awarded on October 5, 2026 to US psychiatrist and neurologist Karl Deisseroth and German scientists Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel for their pioneering work in the field of optogenetics.
