CFS/ME In The News

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!!
