The framing by the Telegraph criticising Labour for a decision made by the JCVI months ago seems a little political…

Presumably, full genome analysis including rarer variants could not only find other genes not looked at yet, but those genes could have a higher contribution/effect size? A few rarer variants working in conjunction with these more common ones could give clearer information on pathways involved...

Straight after the news, good spot, a personal story from a young woman describing what so many have experienced from the medical profession followed by an interview with Chris Ponting. Questions on auto-immunity, medical misogyny, Chris focuses on his message well. And the interviewer is to...

No mentions of SUDS3 or SDS3 on the forum as yet, however Other mentions of HDAC1 on the forum https://s4me.info/threads/increased-hdac1-expression-increases-mitochondrial-dysfunction-in-endothelial-cells-2022-jones-et-al.27625/latest...

Nothing from the BBC website yet, hopefully there will be as it has huge reach, but looking at all the other headlines from search engine news feeds the message seems good, this is what the casual observer or half interested person will probably see. Great job by the whole team in getting the...

Looks like some great reporting, a few hiccups and the usual suspects trying desperately to remain relevant. If only they’d shown such skepticism and caution around PACE and the theories they’ve been pushing for decades. Can’t imagine why there is such a difference in tone. I’m sure there’s no...

Just wanted to echo all the thanks and congratulations to everyone involved in the project. But also say what a great blog post this is from @Simon M and thank him for it. I’ve been able to share it with lots of people I know who aren’t deep into ME/CFS, science or even that aware of DecodeME...

I’ve done a quick pass at audio of the two blog posts and the abstract from the paper to help people access the results. They’re available at the below link. I’ve assumed this is okay with the authors, if not let me know and I’ll remove them...

Well this seems big. Thanks again to all involved. Including everyone here. I’m going to take some time to rest and digest this all. Will catch up woth and join in all the discussions later. I’m sure there’s many long ones ahead of us!

I just saw him in the online users list here so I guess it’s pre-recorded? Or he’s multitasking. What sort of cake do robots eat? We don’t want to leave them out.

Definitely. It’s spin or be spun. It may not be pretty but it is how things often work. Important that it’s backed up but the messaging is part of things.

We can do that :) It would be nice if DecodeME shows something that interests people outside our world. Something that tickles the fancy of more smart intellectually curious people…

Which raises the question of if there’s anything else we can do to encourage, enable or support that? We can talk about it, we can produce factsheets, you can do the work you’re doing, but will that really have an impact on an authoritative medical textbook? If there are no really good...

Agree, I’d skip some of the bits in the ‘What is ME/CFS’ intro, they seem to be trying too hard to make the ‘this is a serious disease’ point without adding much. And phrases like ‘marginalised racial or gender identities’ also don’t add anything and will turn some people off. But apart from...

I’m only just digging into this in more detail and others have I think raised most of the questions that popped into my head already. But a couple of other thoughts Interesting. I wondered what differences there could be between the myoblast culture and this sort of grown muscle model, I know...
