But what happens when it misfires and attacks the body with no pathogens in sight? For decades, scientists have been working to find ways to address the conditions that result from this process, like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus. This episode, sponsored by AbbVie, traces how scientists’ understanding of immune activation has evolved and explores new clinical approaches that aim to reset the immune system. It’s a story of turning inward to finding the answers already written in our biology. Not intended for UK audiences.

The blood-brain barrier is the brain’s personal fortress, protecting it from potentially dangerous pathogens. But that same barrier can also prevent the delivery of medicines. In this episode, sponsored by AbbVie, we meet the scientists exploring the use of shuttle technology to navigate the blood-brain barrier and potentially address conditions of the brain. It’s a story of scientific persistence and the new approaches that might develop when you stop trying to knock down the door and learn how to unlock it. Not intended for UK audiences.
