The most powerful of these is a method called #optogenetics, which enables researchers to switch populations of related neurons on or off on a millisecond-by-millisecond timescale with pulses of laser light. Another recently developed method, called #chemogenetics, uses engineered proteins that are activated by designer drugs and can be targeted to specific cell types.
