  That’s a tough one!
  I would take samples of people with the disease and work out where is stems from- ie what organ, then I would look At the diseased organ under the microscope to see if the cell has caused the disease or if it was a virus or bacteria. If it was the cell you’d then have to look at it from a genetic level to work out why it has mutated and how. I’ve never done this though!!
