Description

Last week we started our series on multiple sclerosis by discussing the history of the disease, the symptoms, and the various forms of the disease. This week we dive into the biological cause of the disease. What makes multiple sclerosis pop up? What sorts of genetic or environmental factors seem to play a role?
We also recommend you check out Eps 63/64 on the blood brain barrier, Eps 56/57 on autoimmune disorders, and Ep 38 on the adaptive immune system for more background information!

Titles in the series (100)

Profane, insane, and 100% primo science, Petri Dish is a no-BS podcast that explores the wildest subjects in modern science with clarity and evil joy. Hosted by Sean Allen, a Nanoparticle/Immunology Researcher, and Nathan Allen, his "screenwriter" brother, Petri Dish fuses hard science with a freewheeling and madcap conversational style. Cannabinoids, Plague, Cats, the dreaded Candiru, and the even more dreaded Covid-19: all these and more are dissected with intellect and irreverence, dropping every week. So reject ignorance. Join the Scientific Revolution. Join Petri Dish.
