      I think that the most interesting conditions are a set of diseases called auto-immune conditions. These illnesses, including multiple sclerosis and Crohn’s disease, are caused by the body trying to fight things that it normally wouldn’t in the same way that it targets a harmful bacteria or virus. There are no known causes or cures for most of the conditions of this type making them incredibly interesting to study.
