As a teenager, David Ginty wasn't interested in school. It was his mother who encouraged him to attend college, a decision that ultimately led him to become the 2026 Brain Prize winner. Read David Ginty's story: brainprize.org/winners/touch… #BrainPrize2026

How do you feel a basketball, or a hot stove? 2026 Brain Prize winners mapped the neurons of touch and pain — work now pointing toward treatments such as chronic pain. #BrainPrize #Neuroscience

At the ECNP Congress, Brain Prize 2025 recipient Frank Winkler delivered The Brain Prize Lecture on “Malignant Networks in the Brain,” presenting his research on tumor–brain network interactions. #BrainPrize #Neuroscience #ECNP

2026 Brain Prize winner David Ginty spent his career mapping the nerve cells sensing pain. Then he got shingles — and used his own body to identify the neurons responsible. #BrainPrize #Neuroscience

Just 6 days to go until 2025 Brain Prize winner Frank Winkler presents his lecture, ‘Malignant Networks in the Brain,’ at the 39th ECNP Congress in Munich. @ecnptweets For more information: ecnp.eu/congress2026/ #BrainPrize #Neuroscience #ECNP

2026 Brain Prize winner Patrik Ernfors has spent his career studying pain. Then lifting a heavy sofa left him with years of chronic pain — and a deeper appreciation of why finding treatments matters. #Neuroscience #BrainPrize

What makes a great scientist? For Brain Prize winners David Ginty and Patrik Ernfors, it starts with mentorship - trusting the next generation to find their own path, and even surpass them. #BrainPrize #Neuroscience
