Diseases of the Brain

Meera Senthilingam

This week, we probe into our brain to investigate neurological diseases such as Huntiington's and Alzheimers disease to see how understanding the genetics and immune responses of these diseases could help us treat them. We also find out how the sequencing of a fungal genome could protect the agricultural industry in South Africa. Plus, we try and get something out of eyes, in Question of the Week!
