This week we are going to have a daily feature on the blood-brain barrier.  To begin, we address the most obvious question, “What is the blood-brain barrier (BBB)?”.

To answer this, we encourage you to take 5 minutes and listen to this very thorough explanation of the BBB by Australian science communicator, Dr Karl Kruszelnicki, made for ABC Science.

As always, feel free to comment below and ask any questions you may have.
