The writer of this piece, David Cox, has created this Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/storiesofscience, as well as http://storiesofscience.tumblr.com/. He says in his post in the Race to Solve ME/CFS Facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/314293301959189/)
Hi everyone, just wanted to let people know that I've started a facebook page called Stories of Science (https://www.facebook.com/storiesofscience) looking at key questions in healthcare. We're doing a series of posts on CFS/M.E. this week and planning a big month-long feature series later this year, interviewing all top researchers/doctors in the field.

Thought it might be of interest!

As background, I'm a journalist for the Guardian. My girlfriend has CFS and I wrote this piece last year which was highly regarded among ME/CFS patients:
