This month\'s episode is an encore presentation of an interview with Dr. Guy Caldwell from the University of Alabama. Dr. Caldwell explains how tools from molecular biology make it possible to use the famous C. Elegans roundworm to improve our understanding of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson\'s disease.

Dr. Caldwell will return to Brain Science next month to give us an update on his work.
