How a painkiller works in the body –a TED talk

As you may know I don’t just cover vaccines. My degree is in molecular medicine with specialties in virology, biochemistry, and immunology. And yes, I spent a majority of my time working with vaccines. I found this really great TED talk on how pain relievers work in the body and I think it’s great information to know. As with anything you put in your body (vaccines included), it’s a great idea to know why and how it works.

And if anything, you will have a little nerd information to throw into the conversation to “liven up” a party! Only kidding…please don’t talk about ibuprofen at your next dinner with friends!! You might not be invited out again. ;0)

However, do go forth in your quest for knowledge!
