Health Check comes from the Royal Society鈥檚 Summer Exhibition in London where Claudia Hammond seeks out experts on the human body.

Claudia discovers why one smoker might develop chronic lung disease while another doesn鈥檛 and how to predict which young athletes might have suddenly died from undiagnosed heart problems.
