Beethoven's genome analyzed!
Very interesting stuff. The scientists/researchers had multiple hair samples available to them with varying levels of provenance and chain of ownership. The analysis showed many things, among which he was suffering from Hep-B. No solid conclusions as to what caused his deafness.
