Finally some encouraging news from people researching CFS/ME. People are finally starting to look at the illness as a systemic, dynamic one and looking into genetics/epigenetics. WOOT!! This is so very exciting!
First a YouTube video on the mathematical models being developed. From what I gather it looks like it is based on modeling of dynamic communications networks (yes I used to listen to lectures on this stuff prior to getting sick: I know more about optical packet networks than I care to).
For some reason I can't embed the video but here is the link: http://youtu.be/I9NhS_rDfTU
And an article on the video: http://www.cortjohnson.org/blog/2014/08/13/models-suggest-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-amenable-intervention-dr-broderick-talks/
Here is an article on epigenetics and CFS/ME: http://www.cortjohnson.org/blog/2014/08/20/epigenetics-study-highlights-immune-issues-chronic-fatigue-syndrome/
Good stuff!!
