      Hi
      I don’t really know. I think it’s a problem that will keep me going for quite a while. At the moment we’re just working with worms and once we understand more about what’s going on in them we’ll move on to look at bigger animals and humans. The worm is very simple and we still don’t know that much about what’s going on. Humans and animals are even more complicated so I think it’s going to take a long time.
