      Hi 328eura48!
      I am looking at motor neurone disease – which is a disease that makes people’s nerves get sick and die. It’s my job at the moment to look at other parts of the body to see if they’re affected in this disease as well, and at the moment I’m looking at blood vessels.
      If you look at my profile in my ‘typical day’ question I’ve got a picture of some blood vessels in the eye! It’s pretty cool!

      Thanks for the question!

      Ali
