      No my research does not help us understand how human brain works. My work at best; lets us understand how different tissues (can be a tissue in the brain) respond to radiation treatment and its after effects.

      Yes, I do a lot of studies on brain drugs and how hey affect the brain. We only understand about 1% of what the brain can do, and of all the different chemical processes that go on in there. In 100 years time, people will look back and laugh at how primitive our understanding really is

      Not really how it works, but for me how we can locate brain tumours and improve the delivery of radiation to particular areas. I studied the brain during my training (I find fascinating!).

      Yes my work does! I study how people use medical devices and especially what errors they make. So I developed a new way that influences the way people think to reduce errors. 🙂
