Episode 98 | Dr. Nancy Lin is looking deep in our cells to find a way to diagnose Sarcoidosis

Dr. Nancy Lin at Johns Hopkins is working on a way to quickly diagnose Sarcoidosis - at last compared to the current ways it is being done.  She is looking at our micro RNA to see if there is something different in sarcoidosis patients.  Her research is being funded by a $150,000 grant from the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research.  Not only does it appear promising, but it may one day open doors to a cure.  Listen to this fascinating conversation as Dr. Lin explores the root causes of sarcoidosis as far as we currently understand it.
