The sonic boom problem - Katerina Kaouri

Discover how scientists are using crowdsourced DNA to find the causes of untreatable diseases, and developing new drug treatments for them.Uploaded 13-05-21--When scientists don't know the cause of a medical condition, developing a drug treatment takes significant trial and error, and lots of money— which is why we only have drugs for a small proportion of diseases.
