Tonight, the scientific experts examine how scientists are battling the world's big killer diseases. Biologist Aarathi Prasad joins virus hunters in the jungles of Africa, Robert Winston sees first-hand how the surgeons of the future could be robots, and Richard Dawkins investigates the way brain disorders might one day be treated using laser light.
