So this is really cool. I've been super interested in this one gene mutation called LRRK2 which has a really bizarre link to details in contentious debates over history (too long to include in this comment). The gene mutation is connected to both Crohn's disease and Parkinson's. So after seeing this article about how glial issues are connected to Crohn's, my immediate thought was - well, what about Parkinson's? And indeed, it looks like the LRRK2 mutation contributes to Parkinson's by screwing up the glial cells: Is Glial Dysfunction the Key Pathogenesis of LRRK2-Linked Parkinson’s Disease? (2023): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9856048/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9856048/ (I can't wait for LLMs to advance enough that parallel discoveries in subdomains are teased out as further cross discipline research candidates.)
