Losing Our Minds By David Cheng

Day in Science

On the Day in Science, Glenda prepared for a presentation with her colleagues in the morning. She returned to her office to do some paperwork - assessing a patient’s case. One of her patients has a family history ofHuntington’s Disease,which shortens life expectancy because it causes cell death in the brain.

She diagnosed the patient with Huntington's disease by examining brain tissue under a microscope.
