I am happy that you liked the article and thanks for those corrections - have to work on those double letters a bit, haha.

And thanks for the suggestions! Yes, I am aware about these kind of non-standard applications of optogenetics and actually already wrote a bit about them. For example the use of optogenetics to kill cancer cells, or activation of gene expression with light and even the application of optogenetics to control heart cells. But thanks for the links you provided- the papers look really interesting!

BTW, great feedback - I always love to hear what can be done better. :)
