MEA Summary Review: Cytokine signature associated with disease severity in ME/CFS | 18 August 2017
There has been a lot of talk recently about a new research paper from Stanford University concerning cytokine signatures and disease severity.
In this review, we hope to break down some of the main aspects of that study, question some of the science behind it, and explain a little more about what it means for the future of ME/CFS research.

Professor Montoya will be over in the UK in September to deliver a key presentation at the CMRC conference in Bristol:
