Where does a medical cure come from? 100 years ago, it wasn't uncommon for scientists to test medicines by taking a dose themselves. As medical technologies get cheaper and more accessible, patients and DIY tinkerers are trying something similar—and mainstream medicine is racing to catch up.

Check this out, an important medical breakthrough. Scientists have successfully eliminated HIV. Now to what could be a major breakthrough in the fight against cancer.
What do you do when a piece of your body's hardware goes haywire?
Welcome to Prognosis, a new podcast from Bloomberg where we'll be exploring health, medical technology, and access to the mind-blowing innovation that's underway. I'm the host, Michelle Faye Cortez. We've never known more about the human body than we do today, and we've never had so many tools to put that information to good use. Most people trust their doctors when it comes to making important medical decisions, but more and more are harnessing cheap and readily available technology to take matters into their own hands. Biohacking, unlocking the code of human life, developing breakthrough drugs, and finding ways to get them even when regulators aren't on board and the treatments aren't approved. For the next two months, we'll be hearing many of those stories. Subscribe to Prognosis on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts, and catch our first episode on November 5th.
