Okay, I am beyond excited about this collaboration between technology and molecular biology~ and wanted to share a link with you today from NPR.
First, this is a great flu-season topic to cover, as we are surrounded by so many dealing with colds and various other bugs that can complicate our lupus or autoimmune disease self-management.
Secondly, consider the possibilities in what lupus researchers may be able to learn more about the miscommunications going on within our immune systems leading to our destructive inflammation. What would our T-cells say into a transistor and how might that help us target a specific conversation that, when modified, could change the entire dialogue for us?
It is still in it’s infancy, but I am going to be on the edge of my seat watching this potential unfold.
Visit the article and great (i.e. easily understood) video that goes along with it.
