8
+ It's all very complicated, but the basic idea is that sometimes people's bodies produce too much of a given protein.
9
+ That can cause all sorts of havoc.
10
+
11
+ But if you can create a very specific molecule (called a micro-RNA), it can prevent the protein from being produced.
12
+
13
+ This technique is called [RNA Interference][rnai].
