disease posts

[Karen Allendoerfer]

I too would like to weigh in on the side that posts about neurological 
diseases that I have never heard of before are educational.  Of course 
people do neuroscience for a variety of reasons, but one that a lot of us 
use, especially when trying to convince the taxpayers that our research 
is worth funding, is that we would like to understand and treat human 
diseases.  I find it useful to supplement my very basic training 
with knowledge about diseases in addition to the usual suspects of 
Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, and ALS.
