      Our bodies have something called DNA, which is instructions for how to make your body and how it works. All animals have the same DNA, so if we know how the instructions work in humans, we know how they work in animals like flies. We know the DNA instructions for the brain diseases, so when we have flies with the same DNA instructions they will have the same disease
