Predicting and Preventing Autoimmune Diabetes
What causes our body's immune system to error and lead to disease? It could be inherited genes, infections, chemicals, toxins and drugs, or random chance. Gerald Nepom, director of Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason and affiliate professor at the University of Washington, discusses when the body’s immune system attacks itself by mistake and how that leads to disease such as diabetes.
