Discussion
Meningitis is an inflammation of the meninges. While any organism or disease process can cause severe neurological sequelae or death, most feared usually are rapidly growing bacteria such as meningococcus. Aseptic meningitis is usually caused by nonbacterial organisms and other diseases including enteroviruses, measles, mumps, and mycoplasma. About 75,000 cases occur in the US each year. Organisms colonize the person usually in the nasopharyngeal mucosa, spread to the blood steam and eventually reach the meninges by the blood-brain barrier and cerebrospinal fluid after evading the person’s immunological de...

But his research has gone deeper by delving into the way stem cells organize themselves into complex structures under the influence of genes and the prenatal environment.
