While we now live in a world where we can access information and make contact with people everywhere in real time, currently available solutions to brain disease are extremely limited. Neuro information technology expert Dr. Jin Hyung Lee shares a moving personal story that inspires her to find cures for brain disease and help us take control of our brain circuit.
