[00:09.99]Listening:
[00:11.26]Exercise 2 Listen and check your
[00:14.35]answers to exercise 1.
[00:17.15]Then put these topics in the order
[00:19.09]they are mentioned.
[00:21.26]I hope that answers your question.
[00:22.95]Right, next question from the audience, please.
[00:25.78]Yes? The man at the back in the blue jacket.
[00:29.22]Good evening.Dr Cartwright,what do you think
[00:32.76]will be the most important developments
[00:34.39]in medicine int he next...
[00:36.38]in the next thirty years or so?
[00:38.29]Well, the first thing.
[00:39.68]the first thing I'd like to say about
[00:41.05]that is that our knowledge of the human brain
[00:43.58]will change medicine in the next five years.
[00:46.03]I think that's fairly clear.
[00:47.94]There's no doubt that it will help us to cure
[00:49.95]all sorts of illnesses,
[00:52.00]from heart disease to cancer.
[00:53.74]I'm fairly opitimistic about that.
[00:55.52]Does that answer your question?
[00:56.89]Well, sort of.
[00:58.53]I don't really understand
[00:59.52]how it will be possible.
[01:01.38]Dr Cartwright?
[01:02.84]Well,without going into too many technical
[01:05.13]details,we still don't know exactly
[01:07.12]how the brain works
